This blog includes 52 Stories in 52 Weeks, which was done in 2007, along with some metaphysical or life lectures. There is artwork and videos, too. I started writing and drawing with two hands around the year 2001 as a mental and brain development experiment on my own brain to restructure my brain's neurons, etc. again. Simply put, using two hands to write and draw forces both sides of the brain to connect together, to become a holistic, stronger, improved brain. I hope you enjoy my blog.

"Please Do Not Return to the War. I Beg You, My Love!"

My only goal this week was to do a better drawing than last week. LOL.

That is true, but really, I am using my own technique to draw these portraits. Therefore, I have to experiment each time I do my own drawings/portraits because what the beginner does not know is that no matter how many Youtube videos they watch or how many art books they buy, they need about 10,000 hours of practice over years to get any good at drawing. Some people can draw faster if they practice a lot in one year. People need to practice because the brain is working on many levels to see something and then to use the muscles and fingers to translate it to paper.

This drawing was done with many types of pens and pencils and color pencils, on sketch paper. And some specialty pens and pencils too. Color Pens and Markers too.

It has been a long time since I have drawn portraits, so it will take a while for my brain and fingers to get warmed again. It has been about 6 years since I have drawn portraits.

Thanks for looking.

The Black 'Thing' She is Looking Through, not at, is a Scope of a Rifle.

I have started another year of once-a-week portrait drawings/sketching. This one about 4 hours.

About Me

My photo
United States
When I was in college studying International Economics/Finance, I was also wondering how to develop a more powerful brain. So in 2001,I began a very specialized ambidextrous brain exercise program, for two hours per day,for many years. Those brain exercise began with me writing out words,mostly verbs, with both hands in different patterns.That developed into dual handed sentence writing to longer stories and dual handed drawing exercises.Details are for future books.I did these two hour brain workouts as a personal experiment to restructure my brain's neurons for the purpose of making my brain stronger for writing and language development; for logically creative storying writing.As far as I know, I am the only person in the course of history to have developed these ambidextrous hand/brain exercises.The purpose of these ambidextrous brain exercises is to strenghten both sides of the brain for language skills development, and to connect both sides of the brain together for language skills development. There is a very logical neurological reason for using two hands to write and draw as brain exercises. I also draw with both hands. 52 Stories is my testament!
