This blog is a record of my artistic journey, starting from the very beginning when I took my first drawing class in my junior year of high school. I'm intending this blog to be a complete record of my progress, so that anyone (including myself) can go back and see where I started out.

Draw Until the Pen Runs Out
Yes, my teacher literally passed out a brand new Bic pen to everyone in the class and told us to draw until the pen ran out. The only other requirement was that our drawing had to show what home meant to us. It could have been a literal scene (like mine) or some idea that wasn't necessarily real. It was basically a "welcome to drawing class" assignment, so it was really open ended. I managed to make the pen run out though (Well, I may have scribbled frantically on another piece of paper towards the end). All I know is that my hand has never been more sore! It was so cramped by the end that it was not doing what my brain was telling it to do. Anyways, here is the finished result. It came straight out of my head with no references, so it's got a lot of room for improvement, but overall it didn't come out that bad.

THIS, is phenomenal! Such detail. Color, shade, shapes, and angles are create wonderful perception of size and depth. Wow. This is impressive. And to be done so in pen and yet not be blurry or hard to see it all is a whole separate detail worthy of praise. I am thoroughly impressed.
