Name:
Location: Ooltewah, Tennessee, United States

I am a Scotch Irish, Viking who enjoys the woods and the wild... I love history and mythology and hope to someday translate that love into Art that will inspire others to ask questions and desire to know more about where we come from so that together we can figure out where we are going...

Edinburgh, Scotland

I am off across the pond for the next several days...flying to Edinburgh for a homecoming of sorts... i plan on doing lots of sketches and taking lots of pictures... This is the trip i have planned my whole life... on my bucket list was to have my bare feet in Scottish soil...being a Campbell from my mothers' side.. i always felt like i needed to go home at least once... so tomorrow night I am off....


Wish me Luck,

Tommy

I thought he has a very super heroic featured face and i am trying to capture that feel

The Artist in the Waiting Room

We only spoke for a minute before I was called back... She was a kind artist from England and trained in Germany who took pity on this student... I didn't even get her name....

She said my proportions were very good....
