Digitally painted pet portrait – Style influenced by Baroque and Post-Impressionism art, with a modern and comedic twist.

My sketchbook spread. This is actually a moleskin watercolor album which I'm mostly using to draw from life. This is sharp and spiky versus soft and fluffy. The models were the two of my house plants, and aim was a texture and light study.

Doodle ink on model Malayan Tapir. Using unipin 0.05 & 0.3 tips. Take about 2 days to finish it.

Always enjoy getting back to drawing the figure from life.

Brush pen on paper.

Sketchbook drawings and collage I made of a recent model session.

Playing with some experimental media while drawing from life with my students last spring. Gearing up for new sessions in a couple weeks.

A cat is taking a nap on a red chair.

I did this one to practice my pencil work and to improve on drawing realism. I used a reference photo from one of my favorite magazines, Inked, I removed the other tattoos on the model except for the beautiful rose tattoo.

Another artwork from 1997. Blast from the past. Pen and ink pointillism.

I felt aweful eathing the model banana afterwards...

One of the students from my lifedrawing class, I have a tendency to draw the other artists in the room and not the model. #drawing #lifedrawing #sketching #tonedpaper #lifemodels #prismacolor #prismacolorpencil #saddbackcollege #saddlebackarts #drawingfro

i was too scared to try watercolor and even more doing a portrait. i want to learn on how to paint realistically. One of my first attempts on watercolor and portraiture. (2014) photo inspiration found on: http://rushmodel.blogspot.com/2011/10/katiusha
