A few sketches from last night's figure drawing session. It was my first time back after a relatively short break but it felt great being there again and trying to push some ideas further. . #figuredrawing #drawing #sketch #art #artist #illustrator #illustration #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #illustratorsoninstagram #charcoal #charcoaldrawing #victoryicecream https://www.instagram.com/p/By6TOJ_gE4n/?igshid=7naa90faqxsp

#bringmethanos . Been away for a while. Have lots of art to show but it'll wait. For now here's a quick sketch I did today, and hopefully a future project. . #thor #marvel #avengers #pointbreak #digitalpainting https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv0PZDGlOyv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hbad9i117lv6

I was busy traveling and getting ready for the beginning of SmArt School this week but I still wanted to finish this painting. Things might get hectic as classes continue and I keep flying out west but I'll try to keep the practice pieces coming! . #rollerderby #toughladies #art #artist #illustrator #oil #oilpainting #painting #illustration #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #illustratorsoninstagram #instaart #instaartist #practice https://www.instagram.com/p/BuUkxm7leO5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=h5j5nvj4utdd

A quick photo from the easel taken earlier this week. I went back to an old contemporary dragon painting and wanted to do a test run with media and colors before I started the final. . #dragon #hotride #study #thisisntevenmyfinalform . #oil #oilpainting #painting #art #artist #illustrator #illustration #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #illustratorsoninstagram #instaart #instaartist #neon #city https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt2XMf2lYPc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d8pdmc56nwx3

I spent yesterday afternoon working on this guy and while I might give it another hour to bring out some details I'm setting it aside for now to move onto the next practice piece, along with bigger projects. . #art #artist #illustrator #illustration #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #illustratorsoninstagram #practice #instaart #instaartist https://www.instagram.com/p/BtJrh9KhKiD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1b1d3dz8df2mn

The internet and social media have been more than I can handle lately so I haven't been around, but I've still got plenty of things happening offline. There may be a hail of posts in the future. For now, here's the first pass on my current practice piece. . #art #artist #illustrator #illustration #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #illustratorsoninstagram #practice #instaart #instaartist https://www.instagram.com/p/BtG50ALhtYl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=oyra13wuvmut

Back in the swing of it. Feeling refreshed, and ready for my first victory ice cream of 2019. . #figuredrawing #drawing #sketch #art #artist #illustrator #illustration #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #illustratorsoninstagram #charcoal #charcoaldrawing #victoryicecream https://www.instagram.com/p/BsrejpQBNOg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lkxr41vqyuwm

I've been asked how I go about my projects and I thought this would be a fun example to share. Here's my King Dedede composite reference and the one initial digital rough I chose to work with. . #videogames #kingdedede #fatguyinalittlecoat . #art #artist #illustrator #illustration #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #illustratorsoninstagram #practice #instaartist #instaartist #reference #digitalart https://www.instagram.com/p/BqDpPo3hMg-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vpk4kptdp4fc

The final drawings from yesterday's figure drawing session. A rewarding end to a busy day, not to mention the ice cream and impromptu cocktail that followed. . #figuredrawing #drawing #sketch #art #artist #illustrator #illustration #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #illustratorsoninstagram #charcoal #charcoaldrawing #victoryicecream https://www.instagram.com/p/BnEJsfngqbF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=otkddpdi6uyf

One of my main projects called for the use of metal leaf so I decided to reacquaint myself and practice using it with... well, a practice piece. Painting to follow. . #art #artist #illustrator #illustration #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #illustratorsoninstagram #practice #instaart #instaartist
