Who am I? I am whatever my imagination allows me to be. I also happen to be a 41 year old kid with too many things to do and not enough time to do them. My name is Calliope Reeves Alien Budd, Born in Eden, North Carolina and raised in Asheville, North Carolina USA. I received a degree in Graphic Arts & Advertising Design from South Western Community College in Sylva, NC, USA class of 1992. I joined DeviantArt March 23 of 2009 sharing my art for the 1st time with the online world. I joined Redbubble as CReevesABudd in December 2009, and now I am on Zazzle as of February 2010. I am also on Shadowness.com :D
What's my Artistic passion? To learn all I can and expand my abilities to better the connection of my imagination vs my hands limitations.
Why did I get into art? I have always been into art, I can't imagine my life without it...
How do you inspire yourself? everything in life offers some form of inspiration, I have found my biggest challenge is getting started. I set goals for myself daily to create something new to get past the starting point.
Where would you like to see yourself in 5 years? Above ground, outside of that I would love to have the ability to improve my life through my art <aka> making money on it... I have always dreamed of publishing my own art book of my life's works.
