My Bio

Hello fellow Deviant!


My real name is Spiros Ligonis.

I live in Greece in Rhodes Island and I'm 32 years old right now.

I'm an traditional anime artist focusing mostly on pure pencil work(black and white). I've been mostly focusing in viewing other peoples arts and trying on remaking them from scratch as I would like to call it my self "Neo Traditional Art" which for me means pure pencil work in a more modern and realistic way than its showed on the actual picture.

I've been drawing for over 9 years now, posting my artwork on Deviant Art as well as on Facebook and Instagram.

If you are wondering about my art skills I've never actually attended in any Art classes and I don't think il ever will, I would like to call my self self-educated though I've been watching some helpful videos on Youtube here and there... but hey! who hasn't...?

I think of Art as a talent, inspiration, pure magic, you can do anything if you put your thought's on a piece of paper, its a way to express feelings and ways to communicate with other great artists.

I also like watching anime and you can tell that by my gallery which mostly all of my artwork is based down on anime characters.

My motivation for doing all of this are two simple yet humane reasons:

First one is simple and short, I love what I do, I have the passion for it, that I am sure of without any drops of regret or hesitation.

And the second reason is that eventually we will die sooner or later that's a fact... so what better way for people to remember you not by your name but by the things that you have done?

The answer is simple, by leaving your "stigma" in this world, so that's what I'm doing at the moment, creating art so I will never be forgotten.

I hope this message find's you well and by reading this I wish that I can light up those lingering embers inside your heart thinking that my artwork may be an inspiration to people someday!

Thank you all for your help and support it really means a lot to me and I will do my best not to disappoint you!

Firstly I would like to thank everyone for the help and support that they have given me these past few years on DA, I would also like to say that I hope everyone is safe and sound in these unfortunate and mystery Covid-19 days that pass us by. Starting from 9 of November or so I will start posting sketches again due to a lot of work and the lack of free time at my disposal, and what better drawing to start with? well spoiler alert, it will be no other than "Boku no hero" :) I know this title is unrelated with drawing just wanted to let you guys know that being a gamer is a hobby as well. Been playing a really nice game for over than 4 months, its called Final Fantasy XIV online and its an Japanese MMORPG gendre and trust me its worth it. I already have almost 1400 hour of playtime cause since its an RPG you have a lot of things to do and keep you occupied for a long long time. If anyone is interested you can message me in private or you can send me your E-mail on a commend down below

Hey guys!   I would like to personaly thank everyone once again for their help and support during my 11th month in Deviant Art(almost a year).   I would like to also let you know that im alright and eager to submit more and more of my art since my days of work are over...for now. This journal is about helping me improve, in other words im asking for everyone's opinion on which part do you think i need improvement or not. Before commenting i recomment that you should go check my gallery(for those who haven't)so you can have a small idea on what im mostly focusing or to check if my technique is sufficient or if it need's more room for imp

Hello to all my Deviant friends and fans out there! Firstly I would like to thank you for all the help and support that you all gave me during my small two-month period in Deviant Art.I would like to inform you all that I will stop drawing for a short time due to reasons such as work.I work as a waiter in a 5* star hotel and as you know its a little demanding, so in short I wont be having so much time to draw anything at all, but if I happen to do so I will post it even on my scrap list.I'm not giving up or anything I'm just informing you all that I will be having less time but that does not mean that I will not respond to requests,Faves,bad
