Something I want to remember

I found this on a website on the internet, someone had posted it in WetCanvas, and I want to remember it. Tho't this would be a perfect spot for it.

"Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplacable spark. In the hopeless swamps of the not quite, the not yet, and the not at all, do not let the hero in your soul perish and leave only frustration for the life you deserved, but never have been able to reach. The world you desire can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours." - Ayn Rand

Kind of inspiring, don't you think?

2 Black Dogs

A little update on my dog drawing--I think I have it now, finished the BG and very carefully sprayed it with a fixative so the darks would hold. I hope to get it framed this week so I can donate it to the Humane Society for one of their auctions. This was done to practice drawing black dogs. I think I 'll try a cat next, my son has a darling totally black cat, I've been trying to get a good picture of him so I can do a nice drawing for them.
