It's pretty epic so I thought I would share.

In college I have seen students with no drawing desire or ability who were forced to fulfill the class requirements ( jewlry, printmaking etc... ) that under the right Professor ( namely my chief mentor Mark Karnes @ MICA ) reached this level of talent from the same immature base within 1 semester!
Made obvious the only downside I see from being self taught?
Learning to see honestly and to be able to critically access ones work can progress in an amazingly short amount of time under the mentor-ship of a dedicated amazing teacher.
After witnessing such metamorphosis I would never assume anyone could not become amazing at drawing if they at least put in an honest effort.

On a sidenote: Hardesty didn't change his beard, haircut or glasses for nine years?
sure he did. before he had very short hair, less beard on the sides and oval glass frames. now he has not so short hair, lot more beard and rectangular glass frames. also look at his latest photo from his website.
