Greetings Bkkaaa! Let’s get you introduced to our wonderful community. Tell us a bit about yourself.

Hi there, my name is actually Becca, but to pronounce my Gamertag, you need to say it like a chicken... “BKAAA!”. I’m a Montreal-based artist, currently studying Multimedia Arts in college, so everything from video editing, to web design, to programming, to animation, and 3D modeling. I started playing Paragon during Monolith, pre V42. I mained ADC, mid lane, and I started playing support after Phase was released.

Q) When creating new pieces of art, how do you usually get started? What gets you inspired to keep creating?

Research. Research. Reference.

Honestly, I spend too much time on Instagram scrolling and researching artists. I have a list of ideas that I jot down whenever inspiration strikes, and I refer back to it when I’m experiencing art block. 

As for what keeps me creating, it’s seeing the final product. Like “hey, I made that”. I’ve only gotten back into art since March when we got stuck inside. 

Q) How did you get into art? How long have you been an artist? 

I’ve been making art my entire life. My style and interests have radically changed and evolved over the years. Although my childhood best friend, Béatrice, played a major role in my passion for art. She is still drawing mangas to this day. 

I used to be a fine arts major, so I used to make large acrylic paintings, a lot of abstract and conceptual work. I created these “Moving Paintings” which are multiple paintings/drawings created on a single canvas, painted over and over again, and I capture every step with photographs and create a stop-motion video with those photographs. 

During my years of study, I put Anime/Cartoon drawings aside to focus on painting. When COVID hit, I convinced myself that if I was gonna be stuck at home all summer, I needed something to keep me sane. So I dove headfirst into digital art which I’ve always been intimidated to do. But I went back to my roots. So now, I’m drawing mostly “Chibi Fanarts” and taking Emote and Sub Badges orders. 

Q) Who is your favorite(s) artist(s)?‍

Ed Pien. , Gabriel Picolo, Ergo Josh… and that's just a few.

Q) How did you find out about Fault?

I’ve been following all the ParaZombies, and so far Fault has the most promise. 

Q) Who is your favourite Fault hero and why?

Sparrow & Muriel, for now. I’m just waiting for either Fey or Phase to be released if I’m being honest. 

Q) If people wanted to follow your artistic endeavors, where would they find you?

Either Twitter : @Bkkaaa1 

or Instagram @Bkkaaa_art

And Fiverr @Bkkaaa if you want to place an order. 

Q) Anything you’d want to say to the community while you’re in the spotlight?

Be kind to each other, we are all here because we miss a dead game.
