This is her story:
I've improved. I dont care what anyone else thinks, I myself believed that I've improved. and im going to keep improving until I can be the best I can be.
So to all my followers and the people who want to pursue a graphic designing hobby- PRACTICE. PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT, and above is an extremely good example! DONT GIVE UP, because If I did, I would still be at the bottom of the ladder.

I remember those younger days, scanning through stardoll magazines, not
really reading the articles but skipping the pages until I got to a

decided to really kick it up a notch. I wanted to work for a
magazine... I wanted to work for one of the big apples in the buisness!
looking
back, my graphics weren't good, but I DO NOT regret making them, I am
still proud of them, because they are the canvas from which I escalated.
And today I do things like this:

I've improved. I dont care what anyone else thinks, I myself believed that I've improved. and im going to keep improving until I can be the best I can be.
