First attempt at making an article

I had to write an article about myself, but I'm not satisfied with the layout. I was considering coloring my sketches digitally with a crayon to add more texture and color to the page. I painted the bottom left just to get a feel for it. Let me know if I should pursue that idea further.

Here is my second try. I am mostly putting more of myself into the text since it was written with me rambling. I also tweaked the layout a little.
