Good Beginning!

Chuck,

That is an very nice initial drawing. Consider it your first tiny step.

You have much to learn before you can hang out your shingle. I would not even consider doing commissions right now. That would be really jumping the gun. Give yourself several serious years or more of intensive study before you handicap yourself.

I see much too much dreadfull commissioned work done before the artists are ready. I have done that also and I wish I could burn those canvases.

Being an accommplished artist is not a race. Approach this a not wanting to be a portrait artist, but wanting to be the best artist you can be.

You did not get your first position based on your experience with a toy chemistry set from Toys 'R Us.

Sincerely,
