Well, here it is-my very first ever blog. Like you couldn't tell just by reading these first few lines and looking at the layout. I assure you the writing and design will improve over time, as does any repeated task. My first drawings as a child of the Death Star and Luke Skywalker from Star Wars were pretty damn crude. Certainly nowhere near the quality of Ralph McQuarrie's paintings. But I persevered. Now, don't get me wrong. My work is still not even close to matching his talents, nor any of the other artists who inspire me every day. But over many years of drawing, painting, sculpting and sharing that work with others (family, friends, teachers), I have grown and improved.
I guess that's a very short (and very possibly cheesy) way of starting this blog site. This site is yet another way to improve my skills as both a visual artist and a writer. Sharing recently made artwork and getting feedback, as well as meeting other artists who will go on to inspire me further, are all going to help me grow as an artist. Just bear with me awhile, and this site will become very fun. And as soon as I can find them, I will post those above-mentioned Star Wars drawings.
If only just to give Mr. McQuarrie a sense of relief.
