C.E.S. - Birth of Ideas


+++ More Details (add to my Artist Bio) ~~~

 All listed in order of "birth".
1. Written Workxz (Since 1985 or earlier; est. 1999)
* My poetry, stories, theories, and more started in Elementary school. 
* My appreciation and use has grown ever since, as you will see below.
+ History:
   Started in grade school, and has never ceased to be a passion. Has become an integral part of a major project that has grown to have 2 versions (my game). Despite having to take the "back burner" from time to time for other projects, I am always willing to write.

2. My 'O.A.D.' (Since 1985; est. 1996 or earlier)
  (a.k.a. Overall Appearance Designing)
* My "passion for fashion" started in Elementary school, as I liked to change appearances so as to not "fit in" with the crowd. I liked the originality and the creative processes.
* Now my '4-Step Process' to prepare for "public" appearances, activities/ events, and holidays.
Includes: 
   Alterations, co-ordinations, loaning (sometimes giving), and preparations assistance throughout the
 years - styles vary.
+ History:
   Started as a rebellious teenager, and grew into an appreciation of diversity/ oddities, "free freedoms", and a much larger spectrum of life interests and opportunities. Varies from one appearance to the next.
