In fact this is my first illustration for the book I read now.
Being an excellent pupil at school I had the usual problems with lessons of skills (drawing, music and physical training). But drawing was something I always dreamed about.
I visited a lot of art galleries and every time I was so fond of the works and so regreted the fact that I can not do same.
Later one of my ex-bosses told a story that if you are really fond of somebody's skills than it works like your "golden shadow" and that means you are certainly capable to do the same with some training. So I decided to start drawing and though this one is not the result I would like to see but it certanly looks much better than I thought I could :)
And that's why I am still proud of it.
