Tonight's topic is benchmarks. Below is a drawing I did in 2010 when I was first starting to get back into something I had enjoyed when I was a kid, but had stopped doing. I almost hesitate to post this, but it is a good baseline on where I was at the time.

I will spare everyone the versions from 2012, but here is the 2013 version.

I realize I have a ways to go, but at least I'm making progress. Maybe it'll be an oil painting by 2020.

Also from 2013, the same two gentlemen, armed.

 

 

Tune in next time when everyone stops standing around posing and actually starts talking to each other.
