Ron Perlman

Ron has one of those faces that you can never get tired of. I'm definitely considering doing a finished studio piece of him this year to add to my portfolio ill be submitting at the ISCA next year.

5B sketches

Sometimes I prefer a very clean sketch with my pencils and other times I like a messy loose sketch. I think sketching in pencil can be essential to some artists, after all it's how most of us got started with art, yeah? It's like visiting an old friend, never a bad idea.

Commissioned work

My friend asked me to combine Edvard Munch's The Scream and Vicent Van Gogh's Starry Night into one for a tattoo he wants to get.

                     Of course I did feel a little strange about the idea for those curious

                turned out that It was a lot of fun to do despite my mixed feelings about it

                    It's almost finished. All of this was done with chalk pastel and workable
                                                fixative used in layers.

Ball point sketch

This one was fun 

retail

Retail stuff 

this couple was my favorite sketch of the day

This lady was kinda funny. I mentioned to her that I was taking a bit longer than normal and she didn't mind. When I showed it to her she laughed then said, "that's so mean...thank you so much" 

The color could have been much better.

nice people

they loved the drawing. I think the mouth is way off on the girl tho.

A few sketches

Two live sketches. Pretty fun seeing each musicians posture while playing guitar.

 Popular and talented Nina Diaz from Girl In a Coma singing at open mic. The sketch is tame at best. the curves could have been more elegant and the expression could have been more powerful. but the size comparison set up was cool.

 This guy was great. It looked like he was about to head-butt the mic the whole time. I was more happy with this one, my initial idea came across fast and the sketch lines where minimal.

This Last guy was from and episode of Portlandia that I paused on via netflix. Amazing show btw.
