In 2003 I started my education at VCU School of the Arts and started to dabble in Charcoal and Pastels.
I'd go out on the net to photography sites and select a photo portrait to try an render with charcoal or pastels.
I enjoyed having high contrast figures in really dark settings.
At one point I took a class in Illustration, and showed my portfolio of portraits to my teacher. 
She said all it meant was that I was a very talented copy machine...
I wonder how much money I paid just to have someone tell me that?
