painting

Today's art ----
I wanted to do something traditional so here's a painting that I did right after the Wine and Design Greensboro Grand opening.




And this is the photo I was looking at:



I'm still struggling with capturing color.  

If anyone has any thoughts I would love to take some advice or critiques.



Now that I look at it again. I can't really read the man. ><

playing with techniques

So I've been needing to draw more so here's a few from today while I was hanging out with Josiah.

I really enjoyed using the toned paper.  It made it a little bit easier.

IRL PAINT!


I've been painting a bunch and I totally forgot to show them.

Maybe another day but this is one that  I worked on today :D




It was a good stress reliever and I'm excited it came out so well. I still have alot to learn but I'm glad I'm having a bit of fun.

This is the reference that I used:  ------>


I wish mine was a bit brighter like the picture but you win some you lose some.
