My Small Twitter Fame

I want to express my small twitter fame and how people from Jenifer Lopez to Oprah follows me. Now I live in Lansing Michigan. It is a small city that happens to be the capitol. I go to a community college and obviously I am interested in fashion. I wasn't moving to New York City any time soon. I was trying to  think of ways to get exposure while I am sitting at home. I then decided I want to illustrate some people I love and look up to. The first person I drew ad they actually responded and followed me was Missy Elliot. She is a huge influence to me musically and style wise. Oprah was the next person to follow me. It was breath taking to get a notification saying "Oprah Winfrey is now following you". People around the world have seen my work and commented on it. People from the Editor in Chief of Teen Vogue and Seventeen magazine has seen their individual illustration and has both followed me. Other celebrities like Paris Hilton, Sevyn Streeter, Faith Evans, Elle Varner, and others have seen my work and followed me. Another reason I chose to draw these illustrations was because I wanted these amazing people to know who I was
before I meet them in person. It doesn't matter where you are from you have the opportunity to show off your work right from your living room; and that's just the start.
