Here are some of my older drawings as well...

Alright, one more for now... I just finished it a little bit ago, it didn't work out perfectly as I positioned myself and my fiance a little off in one of the shots causing her to be covered up in another, but overall it worked out well.

Please do post more! I love those.
Ashamed to say I don't know anything about the early comics you mentioned, but I love the look you're nailing down there.
The third is my favorite. I also adore the texture and different media used in the fourth.

Well…this isn’t very artistic or creative (it’s more technical pencil work than anything), but this is my latest and probably my best so far:

It’s on 24" X 19" bristol paper, done in #2 and 6B pencil. There’s also layer of gray prismacolor in the background.
I’m still figuring things out and practicing....just seeing what I can do, what I'm capable of. I suppose I'm going for sort of semi-realism. I’m doing Gene Tierney now

That is incredible, I thought that it was a photograph... but more real. The way that you captured the different levels of reflectivity and diffusion make it come to life.

Thanks so much for the kind words everyone!
I think I feel like a million bucks now - especially after hearing that from some pretty talented artists on this thread.

Lukas, I like the second one of your older drawings alot.
The whispy, sketchy shading looks brilliant.

And Floey - I love the recurring silhouette work.

....this is incredible. Makes me hope and pray I get into college for voice because there is no way I'm going to make it in pencil and paint. :eusa_clap I take my hat off to you!

That is some superb carving, I posted my kachina dolls in a previous thread, nice to see another carver! I was going to give it a go with some technique like that.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Hi MCPRE
Actually...my artwork is more like deep relief engravings. I draw the subjects...then relieve the background..detail and shape..all with a dremel. Then stain and poly.
Thanks

SPECTACULAR!! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

If I sent you a picture of myself, could you do a portrait of it?

Keep up the great work!

Octavia, that's not a photograph? Wow! Stunning work.

[Octavia]

Goodness, thanks again, everyone! I hardly know what to say.
I forgot to include the reference in my first post...it's always interesting to compare the reference with the finished piece and here I think they're definitely easy to tell apart. Which I like. =P

Flute, I have to say I usually don’t take commissions but I am known to sometimes make exceptions, so you’re welcome to PM me if you want to talk about it.

Felt like drawing today...

And this is what came out....

I´ve done several version of this drawing, and even ventured to use water and oil colors, using almost the same elements every time.I´ve been drawing this character for many years (a good way to keep me awake at school). This is of course just a sketch...

Hey gang.
Here is a new one I did for the annual California Screamin' show at Gasoline Gallery in El Segundo California.
I'm particularly happy with this piece.
It is oil on canvas, 16 x 20.
I just finished it so it isnt in a frame yet.
In fact the paint is still wet.
Hope you dig it.
