It all begins again...

It's been so long since I've done anything other than do art and work, so I think it's time to finally start a new sketchbook to reflect upon where I was and where I'm going. A little back story is that I've been around CA for quite awhile, but now is the time to start anew because school just started. Finally official Art School at Memphis College of Art.




Here's the entrance portfolio that I used to get into MCA...


Each image in the portfolio is labebled as follows:
