Description
Well, this drawing has been in my head for quite some time now.

I saw a bird born without wings. It has the will to fly, and the instincts of a bird, but just no wings.
Other beautiful birds, some younger than it, are already flying off into the distance, but it was still there, trying to think of how he can also make flight.
So he decided to make metal wings.
If these wings ever work, he'll still fall behind.
But at least he'll fly, and that's all that matters.

That pretty much describes how I see my own artistic life. Sounds corny, I know, but I mean, I was not born into a wealthy family that was able to support my every artistic endeavors, not able to buy me any art supplies I need. Hell I'm still trying to save up for a tablet. I am also very flawed, lacking patience, persistence, and most of all, determination. I got a lot of work to do if I ever want to get better. So piece by piece, I'll get my act together, like building a metal contraption. Perhaps it'll work, perhaps it won't. But I know that I'll have at least tried.

The drawing itself was interesting. I learned how to draw feathers and rocky cliffs. Also learned a lot about drawing clouds. All in all this was a really good exercise. Comment and let me know if I can improve or something.
