Artist Bio: When Alivia Sivik watched other people in her family draw, she decided to try it out for herself. She enjoys drawing because she finds it soothing. Whenever she is not drawing, you can usually find her outdoors hunting or riding horses.
Sivik’s advice for other aspiring artists: “It’s not always easy, but definitely practice every day. Look up reference pictures and tutorials if you need to. Try to push yourself, because that’s the only way you can get better. It takes a lot of practice and work, so confidence is important.”
