2013 Year in Review
What a year it’s been. I was actually VERY nervous to look back over what I did — or more importantly, what I didn’t do — this past year. I started out decently, and then cancelled a lot of plans … Continue reading

Inked Thorin Drawing
I finally finished one of the sketches I had drawn a little while back. After a lot of fretting and wondering I finally went out and bought a new brush. I love the Winsor & Newton series 7 brushes. I … Continue reading
