We've Only Just Begun

Hello, all present and future readers!

     Welcome to my new blog! Let me start off by telling you a bit about me:

     My name is Sheridan Bronson. I'm an illustration student graduating [soon] with my BFA from Brigham Young University. My dreams for my future vary far and wide, but a part of those dreams is that my artwork will mean something special for people. Even if it's simply giving you a laugh and brightening a dull day, I'll be happy. I'm easily entertained and am often in a good mood-- because how couldn't I be?! The world is incredible! If I'm not posting my art or things about my art, I'll probably be posting about something amazing someone else accomplished, awesome movies, incredibly interesting animals that inspire me, or about historical places I'd love to visit.
     My style adheres mostly to pen and ink styles with a bit of light acrylic color in there, though I recently bought and learned to use a Wacom Intuos 5 tablet which I LOVE incorporating so far. My subject matter varies, but I love to draw people-- what on Earth could be more fascinating than a person, with a complex and unique personality and character?
     I'm sure you'll learn enough about my history as I go along, but I feel obligated to say right up front how incredibly fortunate I am. My parents, family, and friends have all been very supportive of me and my abilities, specifically in the arts (including my experiences in music). I live in such a great place-- my life is so full of luxuries I know many others don't have. Lastly, (and I truly do not mean to step on your toes, Reader!) I am so grateful for my membership in and knowledge of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Its influence permeates every aspect of my life, and brings me a happiness nothing else ever could. As it influences everything I am and do, my art is changed because of it. I tell you all of this because I feel like it's my duty, due to my fortunes, to leave the world just a little bit better. Resources are available to me that others don't have, and that gives me a responsibility to use them to promote all good and beautiful things.

     Anyway, thanks to you, reader, for visiting my blog! I promise to get some of my stuff up soon enough so you can tell me what you think-- I'd love to hear what my audiences think of the things I'm doing for them!

Adieu for now!
