One of my friends over on the Blackblood Alliance Forums was doing some sketching, saw my whelpday was coming up and decided to surprise me with a little line art of Swifty.

I can't stop looking at it. It's elegant in it's simplicity and my mind screams out, "How do I break through my own barrier and move to this level of skill??"

The answer is practice, I know, but there are times when I put pencil to paper that I think I need to unlearn what I have learned.

Bah...I'm beginning to rant and take away from this very beautiful piece.
