A Premature Burial

"And now the first positive effort to think. And now the first endeavor to remember. And now a partial and evanescent success."

The Premature Burial

"If you wish to forget anything on the spot, make a note that this thing is to be remembered."
- Edgar Allen Poe

In the spirit of reckless enthusiasm, I am taking a shot at painting Edgar Allen Poe (sans color so far). It's been a while since I've tried to create something from reference, but it's coming along alright. Artists make it look so easy, and learning to walk is hard when so many are visibly running past.
