When one is drawing, they must remember that mistakes are essential if you ever want to improve. I was told by over 500 billion people that my picture of Jensen Ackles is my best, however that was a take two-so to speak. I was unique in the fact that I hated my first one which was done in charcoal. I made around 3 mistakes that was very obvious. I felt as though I could not continue ANYTHING until i was happy, and to many peoples disbelief i started again. Turned out it wasn't a foolish decision after all. Be prepared to make errors and use a high quality eraser :) This is a "failed" picture of what is meant to be Brad Pitt. I still think it looks like a man, and I was satisfied with the shading, but SOMETHING is off. Anyway I am currently drawing a picture for a friend of Marylin Manson. I think it may be one of my best works but we shall see. Im not going to do update pics of it because I want to surprise her!

A little piece of backup work

A proper blog has writing.
So it’s been a while since I actually blogged about anything in a while, more a less pictures that I have drawn, which is what I assume most would prefer to see. However there are a few things I’d like to journal.
Lately I’ve received much praise for my art, and I now see myself pursuing it as a career. I want to one day teach art, as well as sell art, and hopefully deservedly call myself my an artist. When someone compliments my work, it not only do I appreciate it, it gives purpose to picking up the pencil in the first place. After recent offers to do pieces for significant amount of money, I feel some reassurance that my abilities can one day, take me places. If on that day, “a Brandon Symes original” means something, I will feel accomplished.
Thank you to anyone who took the time to view my blog, or let alone, read this.
