This one was the first drawing that made me realize I was pretty good at my newfound hobby. I gave it to my grandmother as a Christmas gift one year, and I will never forget her reaction. I felt like I had given her a part of my soul’s beauty. Hours were poured over each and every detail, and the result blew my mind as much as it did those who got to see it firsthand. I believe I was around 18 at the time.
