I thought that they were Photoshopped stills at first, then realized that they were your oil pastel work. Quite nicely done!  You have quite a talent for understanding how light hits the various planes of the face and body, and you capture that beautifully. Do you do original art pieces too? Landscapes, portraits, still-lifes, etc? |

Landscapes, portraits, still-lifes, etc? oh wow, thanks! yeah, all done by hand! and thank you. I worked really hard this year to improve with portraits and lighting, so I am really glad you see that. I do! I prefer doing portraits of any kind, but I've done a little still life. I'm awful at landscapes, though. haha. ___ and thanks, Emmie! |

Lovely pastel work, great to see more original artwork here - I always get in a mess with pastels so I just stick to blurry landscapes |

oh, wow! Thanks for all of the amazing feedback, guys! Lovely pastel work, great to see more original artwork here - I always get in a mess with pastels so I just stick to blurry landscapes Thank you! haha, pastels are my favorites. but, pencils are much easier to maneuver. Awesometastic work. I fail on all levels of any art talent. Whats your process for making your oil-paintings? I'm curious as I really have NO ability at art, so I'm always interestd how people go from blank canvas to work of art, literally. Thank you so much! I take a reference picture or screencap, color it to my liking, and then graph it into squares. then on watercolor paper, I lightly graph my paper, and then, looking at my reference picture, I paint it in square by square (shade by shade, as well) and adjust things as needed. Hope that answers your question well enough. Brilliant , Faith & Buffy one just = ♥♥♥♥♥ Really great work they look like stills but that just shows how great Your drawing is! Thank you so much!  I've definitely worked at it a lot over the past year to get closer to the likenesses. Bloody brilliant, well done. Thank you very much! Thank you!! |

Those are absolutely wonderful. You have such a talent.
I wish I could have one. Then again, I'm moving into a new place in a few months ...

I love how part of the pictures look photorealistic, while other parts are more, for the lack of a better word, "sloppy" and cleary painted. You have a certain style.
How long does a painting usually take to make? And which ones are oil and which are pencils? I can't tell on all of them.

<--- Fran Kranz actually asked to have this one, so I sent it to him. I squeed a ridiculous amount.
