Prophets


 For Christmas My brother Nephi gave me some charcoal art stuff and showed me how to use it! I was a little skeptical on my artistic ability but I plunged in and after 15 or so minutes I had my first drawing (Brigham Young). The first four took about 15 minutes each then the next three took me about 30 minutes each and the last ones took me about an hour. I know that they are not perfect and There are some (Like David O. McKay) that I was just so done with drawing that I didn't really take my time to make it good. But here they are!
 
(Brigham Young)

 (George Albert Smith)

(Wilford Woodruff)

(John Taylor)

(Lorenzo Snow)

(Harold B. Lee)

(David O. McKay)

(Joseph Fielding Smith)

(Spencer W. Kimball)

(Ezra Taft Benson)

(Howard W. Hunter)

(Gordan B. Hinkley)
Aaron Helped me with this one:) We had lots of fun!

(Joseph Smith)

Anyways I am pretty happy with them all :) even though when I draw them I have to wear my work-out clothes, my apron and be ready to take a shower afterwards, Because it is such a dirty project:) 

Nephi showed me how to draw this way with "Joseph F. Smith" so I didn't draw him. Since all of these guys are dead it just felt weird to draw "Thomas S. Monson" so I will have to draw him later :)

And I think that it would be pretty funny if you drew Thomas S. Monsan

HOLY NO WAY WAND! What 15 minutes?! Are you serious? Those are SO AWESOME!!!

My favorite is George Albert Smith. And you can easily tell who each one is, you captured their face so good.

wow
