Stress Relief
I’m alone a lot during my usual day to day in order to achieve the artistic goals that I’ve set for myself. This unfortunately means I have a ton of time to dwell within my own head which…can be a bad thing. I’m usually a rather upbeat positive person but from time to time the…

Hard Surface Metallics Study

I’ve never been one to immediately discredit another artist’s (or person’s) critique because most everyone has something you can learn from. I…

A Few More Recent Scribbles
Here are a few of my recent warm ups and studies. I draw and paint from life a lot because I feel my ability to create from imagination is already pretty strong. In my case, it’s my mission to observe life to the fullest so that I can really do some awesome work from my…
