Always ready! #currentmood

One of my first attempts with oil pastel

Continuing my soccer-themed pieces with a heavy slant towards Arsenal (COYG!). Overall happy with how this one came out.

First upload! Quick sketch; trying to get back into this.

Acrylic on paper format A4

This is inspired by Marvel’s Cloak and Dagger! Lemme know what you think!

Acrylic on 10 x 10 in wrapped canvas

Doodles from my sketchpads during March. The coloured floral, has been doodled in black fine liner then overlaid with pastel pencils.

One of my favorite things about being a parent is listening to the stories my daughter makes up and really trying to encourage her imagination. She has named a bunch of the cacti which line our windowsills, while our cacti are very accustomed to their suburban lives they also like a bit of adventure, this is a group of them taking a family vacation to the desert.

She has been begging me for years and I’ve finally done it.

In an attempt to be much more consistent with my drawing practice (and to tackle my insecurities about showing people my drawings) I am hoping that posting some of my sketches online will help keep me accountable. So day 1 sketch, I managed to find a very cheap used college set of Rotring Rapidograph pens online, when they arrived today I was delighted to see that they had NEVER been used! After a bit of a happy dance I got a couple of the pens assembled and started to figure out how they work. This is a quick sketch on tracing paper not that I was tracing anything I just need to invest in better paper with less tooth to be able to use these pens without having ink flow issues.

March 26 is Purple Day for Epilepsy Awareness. This is one of many of my Sandwich Bags I’ve been doing since 2008.

Ink sprays and Micron pen

This art is linked to my previous work. The protogonist has entered the other side of the world. A weird place but it seems familiar as this world is nothing but his consciousness and diary is just a portal which let him in here

Done on gray toned paper with grayscale pastels

I had this black cardboard lying around for quite some time so I finally decided to make something out of it. Went for a intense lighting on a horse silhouette because the cardboard is dark and well, because I really like horses. Hope you like it.

Original spray pain and acrylic painting on stretched canvas. Bridal Veil Falls is located above Telluride Colorado and is one of the most beautiful places in all of Colorado

i had become so bored of reading the articles in this hate-mongering newspaper that i decided it was a better use of my time to start doodling over the pictures.

That was my first animal painting, chose ocelot, because the are so beautiful and unusual. It is done with oilcolors on canvas.

A few pieces from my drawing session with my class yesterday created on my drawing pads backing board.
