Hi guys!

So, I decided to make a "F.A.Q." where you can find all the important and basic information about me and my work gathered neatly in one place. I'll probably add more Q&As later, so let me know if there's a specific question you think should be included and answered here.

Life-related Questions:

Q: What's your name?

A: My name is Johanna-Stephanie, but my in every day life
I use my middle name and everyone calls me "Stephanie".
Please call me Stephanie/Stephie/Steph or by my current nickname Shipwreck. <3

Q: How old are you?
A: At the moment, I'm 22 years old.

Q: Where do you live?

A: I live in Athens, the capital city of Greece.

Q: What languages can you speak?
Greek: Fluently
English: Fluently
Japanese: Beginner

Q: Do you go to University/What do you study?
A: Yes, I'm a University student (4th year). I attend the "National and Kapodistrian University of Athens"
in the department of "Social Theology". "Social Theology" is a science that studies religion
and its effects on human societies as well as it's development as a phenomenon throughout history.
Apart from the main courses that focus on various religions, I also get to study courses on art, sociology, philosophy, psychology, ancient languages e.t.c.

Q: What kind of job are you aiming for after finishing University?
A: Ideally, I'd like to be able to support myself by making money as an artist, at least part time.
My dream is to also work as an otome-game/visual-novel artist/developer and to make my own manga series.
I'm also preparing for another kind of profession that's connected to the degree I'm studying to get.

Q: Why did you choose the username/artist name "Stephie-Jo"?
A: "Stephie-Jo" was originally a nickname that I came up with in 9th or 10th grade. I don't remember how I came up with it,
but I was probably looking for something that sounded unique and ended up combining my first and middle name
to make it up. I do think that this nickname sounds veeerry cringey, but I guess it stuck.

Q: Do you have any other social media accounts?
A: Twitter, Tumblr, Toyhouse.
(I post my art there too, so feel free to follow me, if you'd like)
I also have a Discord if you want to chat with me!
Add me: Stephie Jo#2039

Art-related Questions:

Q: How long have you been drawing for?
A: I've been drawing traditionally ever since I was very young (basically ever since I can remember).
I've been drawing digitally since November of 2015.

Q: What tools do you use?
Graphics Tablet: Wacom Intuos Comic
Program: Clip Studio Paint Pro

Q: How often do you draw?
A: As often as I can manage, especially when I'm feeling inspired. However, since
I have a pretty tough schedule and there are a lot of days when I'm tired or
not in the mood, I'm not able to draw as much as I'd like, unfortunately. I usually
draw for a few hours every other day, or, if I'm lucky, on consecutive days.

Q: Do you stream your art process?

Request Box - CLOSED!Hi everyone!

This is my request box. I open it occasionally when I feel like experimenting, practicing and drawing adorable characters.

What I Offer:
Type: Since I'll be taking requests for experimental purposes, I will not be specifying the type of artwork that you will be receiving. You may get a sketch or a lined chibi/bust/half-body/e.t.c. drawing. It will sort of be like a surprise. ^^

Q: Can I use your art for...

Unless, of course, the drawing was made specifically for you, in which case
you can use it however you like (but not commercially),
as long as you credit me as the artist.

Q: Can I draw your characters?
A: Of course, you can! It would make me happy if you like my OCs enough to want to draw them! <3

It's something only I will do when/if I choose. )

And of course, please don't claim them as yours
and make sure to credit me as the creator. <3
