Default GIVEAWAY! one-of-a-kind, hand drawn portrait

Hello, AGF!

This my first giveaway hosted on this forum, so I am very sorry if there are any blatant, or obvious mistakes in my formatting. Anyhow, in this giveaway, I am offering one hand-drawn portrait to one lucky winner. My portraits are geared towards accurately portraying people, places, objects and memories along with their unique role/relationship with the world around them. When someone commissions a piece through me, I am not just looking for nitty gritty, physical details; I am trying to generate an overall "feeling," most importantly. To enter your username into this drawing (no pun intended), simply answer the following question:

If you won this giveaway, what subject matter would you feature in your portrait and what significance would the final piece hold? I will randomly pick a winner from my trusty sun hat on September 15th at roughly 12:00 PM Central Time.

I'll answer the question. I'd like to have Guitars and Guns. It would represent freedom to me.

The guitars represent the freedom to express myself, without reservation, limited only by my inabilities.

The guns represent the ability to fiercely defend my family and freedom, which includes the above.

Maybe throw in Old Glory, and I've gone totally Ted on you.

Folks, this is only what it represents to me. If you are of different politics, I respect that and choose not to debate it here.

Thank You.

If I won, I would feature my soon to be born (due date Sept 2) daughter in the portrait along side my guitar. The significance would be that as a new parent I would ensure that music, whether it be mine or hers, would be prevalent in our house.

I'd like to be considered for this... though I would probably get in trouble from my wife, who is an artist, because I've never asked HER to create a portrait of my and my guitar...

My portrait of choice would be something that incorporated my son, who at 14 is already a better guitar player than I, and my Dad (who passed away 5 years ago) somewhere in the picture. I owe a great deal to my father and wouldn't be where I am today without his support and guidance. In turn, my son wouldn't be where he is at now if it had not been for his grandfather, so I think a poignant illustration of the past and future generation of my family would be pretty cool.
