Some Old Art of Mine

I was looking through some old photos I took and drawings I did back when I had more time for that sort of thing, and decided to scan and post a few of my favorites. I'm pretty sure the pencil drawings were based on 'how to draw' books. I had started a couple of my own, one of George Washington and one of Carrie Fisher, but never finished them. Drawing is a very mechanical, left-brained task for me, so it takes forever. My handwriting is horrible, I have no intuitive sense for shape and perspective, and I can't draw a straight line to save my life. It's a miracle these turned out the way they did.

Dang, those are great! Make sure you don't stop drawing, because I love it! :)

Haha! Thanks, but I'm afraid it's too late. I haven't done any serious drawing since high school!

I'd say you're very talented. If someone said I had to draw like that or they'd shoot me, I'd just say shoot me.
