Thinking through an insect character design aimed to appeal to someone who isn't a 7-year-old boy.

I don't know why I love drawing birds so much, I just do, and it's always small ones like Finches and Canary's...here I added some froggies coz they're fun to paint too...

The Super Bloom is still going in SoCal! On the trail are poppies, daisies, alyssum, pansies and now the mustard grass is in bloom. My process was an iPhone photo, then a drawing with color and then collage in Photoshop.

One of my botanical abstracts, this one centered around a pond. Though I will be selling the original locally, the print is available on thousands of clothing and home good products across my many websites. Browse them all here: https://linktr.ee/okhismakingart

I showed this in black and white first and have the color version finished now.

Wild animals, pen and ink

Original ink illustrations spitshaded and painted with a brush, no pens! Each card measures 2.5x3.5 inches in size and comes in a polysleeve.

Ye know how it is, a brand new sketchbook and a blank white page, at first it's exciting "what am I going to put in here" but that pristine blank white page keeps staring up at you and you start to think "crap! what am I going to put in here?" So I just doodled and put some thoughts down and doodled around that until the whole page was filled with one big doodle... it broke the silence and started the magic...yeah I said it, super cheesy!

It is a gold imortalization of a moment in a rest in the grass, and under the branches of a high urapan

May pole dancers - design roughs for a client who wanted it for a greetings card celebrating the local village of Settle in Yorkshire, UK.

Ink on paper.

I drew all the circles to help improve my wrist strength after cast removal! The little muscles are all on fire!

This is another #DrawThisInYourStyle with flying dragons. ✨

I was assigned in art class to draw/paint/whatever something to do with reset... at first I, just like everyone else, pictured a reset button. After some thinking though, I remembered how each time my family moved from state to state, it was like I had a reset button, a fresh new start. Also, haha fun fact, the random sharpie lines were a result from listening to fast pace rock.
