Seems like an introduction and brief reason as to why I've started this is the standard. My name is Brandon, I'm 35 and own an HVAC company that let's me pay the bills and now affords me the time to pursue art. I've loved art since I was a small boy. Now artist I am not, hence why I'm taking this course. What I hope to get out of this is the technical skills necessary to bring the images in my head to life. I have no grand asperations of becoming a legendary artist, making art my main source of income or any income. I plan to post my progress once a week every Wednesday. I would love feed back from all and be critical. If it sucks tell me, if it seems like I'm progressing then let me know. Any and all feedback is appreciated. Anyway I'm excited to see how this turns out and how my art will look after six months.
