I'm currently a medical student doing my rotations at Jamaica Hospital, Queens. I've been interested in drawing ever since I was very little, and while nowadays I have very little time to draw, I still try to get some time in here and there. When I first was drawing, I drew only in pencil, because I was able to get a lot of different shades with it.

I then switched to pen-and-paper, because that's what I used to take notes with in my classes :) It's a little different, because when you make mistakes, there's no erasing, so you have to just incorporate your mistakes into your drawings.

Over the past few years, however, I have been into charcoal drawings, adding it to my repertoire. I also have done some oil paintings, but they're much more difficult to scan in :-)
