New Person On the Forum

[bloxofcrumbs]

Hey everyone,
I'm new here and I thought I would just try and get to know a few people as I plan to get pretty regular here. I'm a freshman at a junior college and I'm trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. I love to draw and work with computers so I figured, why not try graphic arts.

If you're available to talk to me about the basics, what I should do/possibly buy/read to get started on this go ahead and e-mail me at bloxofcrumbs@yahoo.com or send me a message or just reply here.

I'd appreciate anyones help and support as I look into this business. Here is a picture I have available. It's not scanned and I sketched it on green paper so the quality isn't so good.

I fiddle around with some graphics on the computer but my old computer crashed and burned from a virus and it had what simple photoshop program I had on it, leaving me with my new compy and the regular ms paint program.

Thanks to those who actually read this and to those who might help. Laterz.
