Being brave and having fun with colour; admittedly this took me quite some time. I'm a huge fan of the film District 9 and needed to pay tribute somehow, so here it is.
Working on completing a portrait from a reference. Going to do one more proportion check to make any adjustments necessary and then start some shading!
Inspired portrait from Troye's single 'Take Me Home' from spring 2020 - combining with his first EP 'TRXYE'. Charcoal pencils and red oil paint used to complete this.

I found my passion for painting and creativity again after fighting depression for years. To celebrate, I painted a portrait. I don't look super happy in this portrait but trust I'm super happy- it represents that I'm going through a process and it takes time! lol
My latest/last portrait of Joe Rogan and using a 3 year long project of drawing and digitally coloring his guests (500 in total) to create a mosaic. Prints available at https://society6.com/gbernard
A quick group portrait I made to try making a timelapse of the process. The timelapse is posted to my instagram account. This time, I used brown and yellow bister ink on watercolor paper. Normally I paint the monsters themselfves, but now I used negative painting to create them.
