A great sense of movement captured extremely well

Thank you!

I seem to have been able to sense and depict 'movement' in a subject from an early age. At the age of twelve I was heavily censured for producing a 'messy' drawing in an art class, when, not being allowed an eraser, I was unable to remove my 'energy' lines at a later stage in the piece.
