Morning realistic portrait with no reference! How does she look? There is something so gratifying when you draw a face without a reference and your camera recognizes it as a face a focusses in on it. What do you find gratifying? Well back to work, remember you are amazing! #portraitartist #portrait #noreference #shading #morningdrawing #morning #thursdayvibes #whatdoyouthink #letmeknow #bestdayever #besafe #keephealthy #staytuned #thankyou https://www.instagram.com/p/CHNyP6glYfF/?igshid=1xb9biua0ljbv

Cyborg Hand! What do you think? So I was getting more and more interested in mecha and cyborg drawing, but was a little nervous to try. I just wasn't sure where to start. So I asked for help. Thank you @9monkeys ! This was what I came up with to start. I know it's not a mech but I like it. I have started to work with some cubes and trying to connect them, I've found that I like the challenge, the problem solving and I seem to be happier with the final outcome. So that's awesome! Hope you find some awesome too because you are amazing! And if you're not following me would you please consider it. Don't forget to like and comment keep safe, be healthy and stay tuned.

Monkey! What should I name this one? Just doodling lately. I am in the process of clearing clutter from essential areas of my home (including my office). With the holidays fast approaching I have a feeling this might be the last chance I have for the rest of the year. So before life hits and I get busy with work I'm gonna clean till I'm tired and then clean some more. Remember that you are amazing! Please keep safe, be healthy and stay tuned.

Live draw practice! Captured this moment this morning of my middle daughter. She was pretending to play video games as she watched them on YouTube. I did get interrupted by my youngest cause she got stuck in a curtain, which was adorable. I do think it took about 30 to 45 minutes to finish though so not bad. I do find things I like and some things I not sure about. What are your thoughts? What do you like and what should I improve on? Don't forget you are amazing! More to come so please keep safe, be healthy and stay tuned.

Which ones your favorite? More practice posts! I apologize for not posting as regularly. I've just been busy with family, leaving little time for my work. On that note I've adopted a new practice! I'm trying to spend as much time as possible with a pencil or pen in hand drawing what I see on TV or just around. Sense I haven't been able to make it to my office to work. I just figured this was a good alternative. What do you think? 1) is a beach 2) a @goldrushtv clay separator machine 3) practice that turned sci-fi Don't forget that you are amazing!

WIP! My middle daughter's portrait. The hair is scary in thought but when I practice the correct techniques it all comes together. If you'd like your own graphite portrait you can DM me for commissions or click the link in my Bio and check out my Patreon! I've been so busy lately learning, getting ready to start my second childrens picture book as well as looking for the right editor for me and my projects. I've come to understand that I can't do everything myself nor do I want to. Its important to step back and ask for help instead of getting overwhelmed. That has probably been one of the more difficult things to learn an accept. If you've read this far and aren't following me, could you go ahead and hit that button on this post. It really helps me. Until the next post please stay tuned, keep safe and healty.

WIP! Portrait of my middle daughter. Being a stay-at-home dad is the best job in the world, it's also one of the most difficult things there is to do in life, besides being an artist. So I know what it's like to have share and compare anxiety. I see how fast and how amazing some art is produced, it's formidable. Being a dad leaves me very little time to create like that even though I have the drive, energy an ideas. I just keep my head up, find something to help me smile and work when my kids let me. I just have to remember that it's only temporary as my kids grow I'll have more and more time to work. So if you're ever struggling with the same share and compare anxiety just keep your head up, find something that helps you smile and remember that your not alone with artistic anxieties. If you'd like a portrait of your own or to support me as an artist check out my Patreon by clicking the link in my Bio!
