I am become Sisyphus, and the inbox is my boulder.
I can't give each email a thoughtful response, but I'd feel dirty giving a thoughtless response. So, I wrote this FAQ to give you thoughtful answers now, rather than have you wait 4+ weeks for a useless reply. Check it out!
Hi, I'm Aydan Lig'on, a passionate creative and entrepreneur based in Berlin. I'm dedicated to storytelling, digital art, and inspiring others to embrace their creativity. Bilingual in English and German, I strive to make meaningful connections through my portraits and share impactful stories.
My primary goals are to excel in the storytime animation community, finish my education and get a stable non-artistic career that blends creativity with meaningful contributions to the world. I also aim to maintain focus, build healthy habits, and inspire others through my entrepreneurial journey. I also want to stay consistent with drawing outside and keep improving my social media presence, even though I heavily dislike doing social media stuff.
Born on March 20, 2005, I grew up bilingual in German and English, with roots in Germany and the U.S.. My main courses in school were art and English, I've now passed my abitur ^^ and I'm trying to make something of myself.
I am preparing for a role in tax services while continuing to develop my creative skills and work on personal projects. I've also recently deleted games to focus on productivity and maintain consistent habits.
I'm prioritizing staying disciplined in my work, improving my health and fitness, and focusing on portraits that bring joy to others, trying to make the other stuff in my shop availible such as a card game and I want to start making more reels with clean edits showing off my work work for me whilst optimizing for health and financial liberty. I'm putting in the hours to study to become a better Fianzwirt/Steuerfähnder, artist and entrepreneur so I can profit from delayed gratitude and have more fun later in life.
I value my 3 fs family, fitness, and freedom. I strive to live joyfully, engaged, and confidently, guided by my goal to tell inspiring stories that encourage creativity and happiness in others.
Digital art, portraiture, videography, game design, psychology, science, and entrepreneurship captivate me. I love creating, experimenting, and participating in initiatives like Makeathon to learn and innovate.
I live in Berlin and my creative work has been featured in local restaurants :>, and I enjoy engaging with local street/art communities. I've also visited the U.S. frequently and was inspired by a visit to Harvard during my last trip.
