"Energy blasts, huh? Here's one from a pro! " -Cyclops X-men Animated Series

The 5th of January

The 6th of January
So its a new year and like many people I know I am going to try and add more to my blog on a regular basis.

As you may have not noticed, I have been slowly learning how to draw over the last 6 years. I am proud of the progress I have made, however still very disappointed at the level I am currently at.

Most of my better drawings are accidents, as to say I sat down to draw one thing and after many mistakes another image appears. Cyclops was not what I wanted to draw when I sat down, but after being frustrated with myself I went through my inspiration folder and found a picture of the Mutant Leader and the rest is above. ( And a very poor attempt at a person throwing and holding a ball of some kind.)  And while my intent is to draw more of a gritty comic book style, my art always seem to take on a Saturday morning cartoon feel. Not sure if that is subconscious or just lack of skill.

I would have been very happy to have spent more time with him, but like most, time is the enemy and there is never enough of it. Or the mind is the enemy and the ability to focus and stay on task is an elusive adversary that I can not defeat. Either way there are a lot of enemies.

Well enough of an insight to the way my mind thinks. Here is to a New Year and the dreams that have not come true.
