I Guess I’ve Always Favored Swords
February 4th, 2010
If you’ve followed this blog for awhile, you may recall this post (http://briansereno.com/?p=667) when I shared with you my vision of ‘Bassimus the Conqueror’, the gladiator that I morphed into to wage my war. As it turns out, brought to my attention by my beautiful Mom, is the picture above that I sketched when I was seven years old. Your guess is as good as mine as to why this 23 year-old drawing of mine is still around. Apparently my artistic ability stopped developing shortly after my seventh birthday, and my love of swords has similarly stayed the same. What the three soldiers standing on-guard in this drawing couldn’t do, I recently accomplished (with a lot of help). Together we slayed an insidious foe.

Hi Brian, no victory could be sweeter!
Cute picture! I love how happy the guards are!
That’s so funny! Obvi mom still has it : ). She was saving it for a time just like this. I love it!
