The last two are kinda washed out because of the camera.
This last one was actually auctioned off for $22,000 in the Houston Livestock and Rodeo Show. Brandon received a small percentage of the moola and the rest went to scholarships. Cool huh!

Talent
I took some pictures of the drawings Brandon did when he was in HS. He had to pull them out the other day for the ward talent show display. He is an amazing artist, but sadly he really wants to bury the talent because he just does not enjoy it. He says he is too much of a perfectionist with his drawings and loses the patience to complete his work.

Wow! He is REALLY talented. Those drawings are amazing. Good work Brandon. I have always wished I could draw but wasn't blessed with this one. At least my eyes work and I can see and appreciate other's artistic talent (if you read my latest blog this last sentence will make sense).
That is really cool! He is good- you should convince him to keep it up!
:) I tried :(
so talented. im jealous of all that talent. if i could draw at all i'd be a very happy woman.
what are they done with. . .
At first glance I thought that top one was a photograph! WOW!!!
WOW!!! Those are amazing!! I can understand his point of view though. There are some things I just don't do because I'm a perfectionist in some ways too. Then again, I don't have talent like that! Give him a few years... Maybe ask him to do a portrait of you... :)
Those are AMAZING! I had to click on the middle one and look closely to make sure it wasn't a photograph! That's a bummer that it's so stressful, because he is obviously so talented.
yeah!!! he's got TALENT!! and yeah, he hated doing all of those! which is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sad, BRANDOOOO because you are awesome!
Wow!! They look so real!! They are incredible!
I'm glad you two are doing well!!!
Yup! that is the same Rodeo that I went to last night! I love the art displays-it is a HUGE deal what Brandon did! That show has 1,000,000 visitors a day. Or, close to it.
It's understandable about not being able to finish work. That is somethin a lot of artists do, they constantly want to "fix" their work.. but sometimes ya just gotta let it go! :)
...and why doesn't he do this for a living??! amazing.
...what a gift
These are incredible!
"Thanks Mom" for nagging me to finish!! =] Brandon really didn't like do that. I'm glad we have this much evidence of his ability.
New post Connie! I love hearing what y'all are doing :) Wish you were in Texas today-we're having a big ol bbq!!!
WOW with a capitol "W"! Brandon has a gift for portrait painting/sketching... the last one is a sketch, right? He is a man of MANY talents! That's so cool. Thanks for sharing Conz! Looking forward to seeing you soon! :)
