A year's worth of drawing... (image heavy)

[Laurelin]

this is mainly for me, but I wanted to show off a bit.

If you didn't know, I'd drawn all throughout high school, but did not draw basically for an entire year my freshman year of college. This past year I took it up again with some new found enthusiasm and I believe I've come quite a ways. I finally stopped comparing my work to everyone else's and decided to just focus on experimenting and trying to improve each picture I do. It's worked wonders.

So for some fun and amusement... improvement over the year (and before)

thanks guys. I was just amused with how much better you can get within a year. It's crazy. You never really notice because it adds up so slowly.
