Words Failing Are Me

Reuben

Portrait of Brian using my fingerprint ink method. I put Tombow pen ink on my fingertips and smudge/stamp inside paper stencils to control the edges of color. I add highlights using white gouache. If you want to see a lot more of this work, I have an art book available (first printing).

I had an idea. I had an ideal.

Sad Santa Selfie

An oil painting of my friend Steve that I painted a few months ago.

Don't know this person's name, but they follow me on Instagram.com/tomthinks. They commented "draw me!" and usually that's annoying, but I peeped his profile and really liked one of his selfies. Hey, it can happen to you.

I finished a family portrait for the Bent Family.It’s the first time I’ve done one before. Zack and Gala are both artists and their sons are really cool. Great family. This portrait is on 8.5x11″ paper.

Last self-portrait of 2019. 

Rest in Peace Carol Spinney.

Trying my best to capture all the deep depths here.
