The First

The  First Drawing

For years I wanted to be a great drawer like my brother. Ever since I could remember, each drawing he drew was jaw dropping. He even drew himself to the littlest detail, and it was magnificent. His face, eyes, body, everything was to the right proportion and I still look at it in awe to this day. He became an inspiration to me, and ever since then I've wanted to be an artist. So one day after drawing, I decided to start a project. I named it “The First One.” It was a simple, just draw myself. I began to do so, first I found a picture of myself that I liked and began drawing that. I thought it was going to be an easy thing to do, but it turned out the be the hardest drawing I've ever attempted. I was having problems with the sizing of each aspect of the drawing. The eyes, lips, etc. So I decided to call my brother up and see if he could help me. We were able to get together an then he looked over what I had so far. He showed me how everything on a person's face, lines up with other features of the face. The middle of the eyes line up with the end of your lips. The top of the ears line up with the end of the eye brows. Also, the bottom of the ears line up with the end of the end of your lips. So from here we began drawing the picture and in the end, it came out wonderful. I felt so accomplished when we finished it. From that day forward, I knew that I could draw great things and I hope to someday. I thank my brother for that. This is the drawing, hope you like it.
