Self Portrait! I'm going to start painting my 2020 self portrait here soon. Here's the preliminary sketch. . . . So, just a bit of a recap for the "theme" of 2019, it was a year of equal parts ecstatic joy and love and bitterness and malevolence. I've had two very terrible day jobs that year, but they did help shape who I am as a person- stronger, tougher, more willing to stand up for myself, and maybe become a good force in other people's lives. On the other hand, my home, family, faith, and art goals have been bliss- a sanctuary and a group of wonderful, honest people to help me collect myself and strengthen me again to go back out and fight. I am grateful for everyone who's been there for me. ❤️❤️❤️ . . . You can't escape toxicity, but you can not let it destroy you! You're tougher than you think!

Sometimes I like to make up stories about the people in my portrait references. This is Imelda. She has dreams of opening her own coffee shop someday. She works as a barista at a small coffee shop and is so good at her job, she may be a week from her promotion as shift manager. Little does she know she's actually from a fairy kingdom, having been brought to our world as a baby to escape the usupers who killed her royal family. One day, the portal to her homeland opened up in front of her. She didn't know what was going on. Now, where will her story go? . . . . . #fantasy #fantasyart #fairies #portraits #portraitstudies #drawingart #drawingsketch #sketchbook #sketchy #artist #art #artstudent #artstagram #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #pencilart #pencildrawing #traditionalart #portraitart. #portraitsketch

Good morning! Dunno what else to say. Trying to see how well those weeks studying the Loomis Meeting and features paid off. . . I'm also thinking about taking up photography to make my own references photos. Anybody here photographers? What's your advice to someone just starting out? . . . #portraits #portraitstudies #artstagram #artistsoninstagram #aristsofinstagram #sketchy #sketchbook #drawing #drawingart #drawingsketch #pencilart #pencildrawing #art #portraitart #portraitdrawing #traditionalart

Hey everyone. I've been practicing drawing lips to the past couple days. It's really nice to just get up first thing in the morning and spent it learning. I've been watching Proko's videos especially for the anatomy of different parts of the face and Rapid Fire Art for the more long form hyperrealism. @stanprokopenko @rapid_fire_art . . What is your favorite thing about art? . . . #lips #lipart #lipdrawing #portraits #portrait #portraitart #portraitstudies #art #arttherapy #artstudies #realisticart #hyperrealisticart #hyperrealism #realism #sketchbook #sketchy #pencilart #pencildrawing #drawingart #drawingsketch #drawing #anatomy #anatomyart #anatomydrawing #instaart #artstagram #artstudent #artist #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram

Been a few days since I posted. Drew this little Sargent study on my break at work. I think I fell into a few old habits, but what can I say? It was a long week and I was tired.

30 minute study of Rembrandt's "Old Woman Reading Book" as inspiration for a character I'm designing. . . . Working on a mini character design project. An old female "mentor" archetype. I don't have a name for her yet (I've just been calling her "female Gandalf"). She's sweet and kind, but was once a powerful sorceress in her youth- now she helps and guides the heroes reach their destiny and destroy the ultimate evil. While she is sweet, kind, and nurturing, when necessary, she becomes terrifying and is surrounded by ominous magic. . . . It will happen to many of us, but what kind of person do you want to be when you're old? Coming towards the end of your life? Will you be happy and accomplished? Sad that you didn't get to accomplish anything you wanted? Or not "accomplished" in the traditional sense, but still happy? I've been thinking about this a lot lately and I want to hear what others have to say. . . . #coffeewithart #rembrandt #oldmaster #oldmasterstudy #drawingart #drawingsketch #traditionalart #pencilart #pencildrawing #artstudies #characterdesign #fantasy #fantasyart #wizard #wizardart #sorcerer #sorcererart #instaart #artstagram #artistsofinstagram #portraits #portrait #portraitart #sketchbook #sketchy
