Commission Painting!

Some of the lighting in the pictures are bad, but you can definitely see the changes made to it.  Looking back now, I am so glad I made all of those too.  Granted it was the longest project I have ever worked on, but I sure learned a lot!

Some Kind of Home

I want to know where you go when you're dreaming.  I want to see what you see when your eyes close. And when it all goes down, do you have a place to go? 'Cause I don't know and I can't tell what you're thinking. So we'll just drive through the night 'til we find  some kind of home. ~Thriving Ivory~ All men have a sweetness in their life.  That is what helps them go on.  It is towards that they turn when they feel too worn out.  ~Albert Camus~

Found this picture on a Harry Potter Page.  It was too good not to post.  Plus, the drawing is pretty decent!

An Artist

An artist is not just an artist by what he draws or produces.  An artist is an artist throughout life.  Through his words, ideas, actions, and creations.   Every day a new challenge is faced.   That burst of creativity does not come out without all of that time he spends practicing.   How can one become an artist without learning about colors and technique and  practicing that technique?   Professional athletes do not become professional until after many years of practice.   Only very few of us are born with great talent.  Most of the talented people you know had to work hard to make their passion their talent.   Now when you look at a sketchbook, you can see all of the mistakes and terrible drawing s made to get to that one great drawing.  You can see the sweat, blood, and time spent on learning and perfecting.  THAT is what makes an artist.  We [don't] try to avoid it, we strive to be it, and to always get better.
