2023, Ballpoint pen on 5” x 8” acid free Moleskine sketchbook paper, Adobe Photoshop. First sketchbook drawing of 2024! Based on a photo of a model in a makeup company advert.
Take it how you want. You either give everything to social media, or it takes everything from you. In the end, you are left naked and hollow. I wanted to make this a simple composition at its core. The image is more about the message.
Times Square took forever to put together, I think the perspective is off just a bit. Overall, I think I did well with shading and depth. I am also improving on drawing/painting the human form. I wish I could trust in shapes and form and go a bit more abstract, but I think that will come with experience.

2023, Ballpoint pens on 5” x 8” acid free Moleskine sketchbook paper, Adobe Photoshop colour correction. I was doing pre-purchase research before deciding on a set of noise cancelling earbuds when I landed on the Google Pixel Buds Pro website and found an interesting model in an interesting pose.
So I've really been trying to raise my digital art game because I've been a traditional artist most of my life. I'm trying to reach Loish level with color at least. Also, I love the fall season and the chill in the air it brings
Im trying to create some characters and work on worldbuilding, so often im drawing them in different environment to explore more about them, the universe they are in and the relationships between them. I actually should credit james firnhaber (check out his art its amazing) , his work was a direct inspiration for this one. I can even say more of a reference, but I love the result, so i'll just leave it here.
I stay home for my family, doctor, everybody. Take care everybody. #stayhome

Just go out from my comfort zone doing some semi-realistic illustration. why lizard? im just love animal especialy reptile and fish. Maybe in the future ill make series of this illustration :D
I got some comments from the last uploads and it gave me motivation to upload more. For some of you who are interested in my work you can visit my instagram page, im more active there. ( I really really hate promoting myself like this, but I struggle to build a community of artists, so im trying every way possible) But anyways. I forced myself to draw this one when I had a really bad artblock. So I think i came up with the most mainstream scene possible. I wanted here to create more comfortable, kinda welcoming atmosphere, but I didn't do that properly In my opinion. I ended up with something completely else. In my head I had a scene where the two characters (the girl with the poncho and blonde guy (I can't come up with their names yet)) after a not the best trip, were welcomed by their old friend in her house, for some break and calm hour.
