"Seasons Freezings"
Christmas 2000
By the time I did this picture, the yearly holiday pic had become a tradition. And while it was done in the name of fun, I also found them as a means to measure how much I had improved as an artist over the course of 12 months. I don't consider myself an artist; what I do pales in comparison to others. But when I compare the pictures side by side, I can't help but feel a little proud of myself. It's the little things like how a nose is drawn or how thick I made someone's arm... the little details I can't help nitpicking.
