Portraits

I have always avoided doing portraits because I was seriously bad at them but I wanted to push myself to do something outside of my comfort zone and I was in this mood where I wanted to draw something verses painting. At the time, I was seeing a lot of really cool portrait drawings onContinue reading “Portraits”

Sapphire Mural

It’s always exciting having a conversation with someone new about my artwork. It is incredibly satisfying when someone wants a piece of art I have already created or wants me to do a new project for them, especially when it is someone that I do not have much or any history with. Having someone thatContinue reading “Sapphire Mural”

The River

I live for the moments when I can say that I have completed another artwork. It means that all the time that was put in, created something beautiful that other’s and myself can enjoy. Whether it is a commissioned piece, which in this case it was, or something that I created for the fun ofContinue reading “The River”

Commissions

I love doing commissions for people. It’s a really good way for me to continue to do art and make money. Yes, I love creating something that I have dreamed about or imagined coming to life. Creating things for my own enjoyment, as well as others. I love that feeling when someone sees my workContinue reading “Commissions”

Fruit salad

If you saw my last post, you will know that I have been working on my drawing skills by doing these little realistic drawings. Some of them are a little more realistic than others. My first drawing was of a strawberry and I was so happy with how it turned out, I decided to doContinue reading “Fruit salad”

Strawberry

I have decided to do a series of mini drawings for fun and to better my drawing skills. I have been wanting to create certain images in my head for awhile now but I didn’t like the idea of painting them so I am setting the time aside to draw these images. It’s a littleContinue reading “Strawberry”

Work in Progress

In the last month, I have had a lot of time on my hands and have used that time to start on a few commissions. This has helped me continue working on artwork after graduation college. I’m trying many different ways to stay productive and continuing to make things. Right now I am doing aContinue reading “Work in Progress”

Productivity

It is super important to continue to make art if it is something that you love and are passionate about. Do not let years go by where you haven’t created anything. Make time in your busy schedule to do an hour here and an hour there. I’m definitely not saying that it’s easy, because it’sContinue reading “Productivity”

What’s Next?

I chose to go to school for art because it is my passion and because I couldn’t imagine doing anything else.  Not only that but I wanted to learn how to get better and learn new skills within the art field.  But when it came to what kind of job I wanted after college, IContinue reading “What’s Next?”

The Bigger Picture

During my time in college, I created some of the best work that I have ever created thus far. A part of my college experience included creating a full, cohesive body of work, which I later called The Surreal Experience. My body of work is mystical.  I created little worlds of surrealism with a mixContinue reading “The Bigger Picture”
