Danny Fenton: Then and Now

Oh. My. Gosh.

I went cruisin' into my old Sketchbook box today, and you will NOT guess what picture I found in my 2004 sketch book: The very FIRST drawing I ever did (and the very last until this year) of Danny Fenton.

I litterally screamed when I saw that.

I honestly was ashamed at how he turned out back then. I even made place to add Tucker, I think, or Danny's ghost half, can'T remember. But I was so ashamed at how he turned out, that I just dropped it and always skipped over that page when I drew in it.

Butch Hartman Style is a pain to do when you first get acquainted with it.

So I figured I would post another "Then and Now" picture. That's a doodle I did a few weeks back of Danny's annoyed look (I just LOVE that look on him in the shows! ) 2004 and 2010. About six years it took me to find the guts to draw Danny again... and fall in love with the show all over again.

So now you guys can see that every artist has to start somewhere. We're not just born like that. We work at it. It's the passion, the habit of doing it all the time. It's the imagination, the movement in our hands that bring the pictures we do to life. It takes practice Lots and LOTS of practice.

But we all got there. In my opinion, ANYONE can draw. Some just need to work harder at it, that's all. Nothing's impossible if you set your mind to it.



Enjoy!
