Oops, I tried to make something and it didn’t turn out how I’d hoped. Oh well, guess I’ll try again.

Worked with a new set of pastel colors on a natural wood panel for this project. The colors bring a smile to my face. 😁 🎨

This is a collection of drawings and sketchbooks I’ve worked on over the last couple of years. Each day incrementally getting better at technic, learning from others and experimenting to create my own aesthetic. Cheers to improvement and growth! 🌱🖋💪🏽

I’ve always been a huge fan of architecture, so much so that it inspired me to make 2 paintings. One monotone (with the exception of a streak of color) and one a bit more colorful. The size of this piece is 48”x48”x1.5” and was painted with acrylic paint. I call it Home. There’s more photos of this on my website, go to thedoncarlos.com/home see more. And if your interested is buying this, message me.

After finishing my latest sketch book I wanted to test myself on something on a larger scale and this is what came out of that challenge. I call it Donna. It’s drawn with micron pens on a 22” x 30” sheet of paper.
