Happy Friday, Patreon Fam 🤙
Just wanted to share a fun little project I’ve been working on. For this series of digital illustrations, I wanted to challenge myself with 3-4 smaller drawing that follow a similar art style, in both anatomy and a simpler level of detail and paint application.
It’s not complete yet, but I think that the challenge here has been making sure that I ...

Happy Sunday, everyone.
After wrapping up some anatomy studies, I wanted to flesh-out this sketch that I've been sitting on for a couple of days. The pose here is a little goofy, but there's a fun and whimsical energy to it that I was really drawn to.
Posing a character isn’t just about standing still. They can be mid-action, leaning, twisting, or even floating. Floating pose...

Hey Patreon fam. Just wanted to share some color flats that are in the works. I'm typically not a fan of sitting poses, as they can appear stiff... but this one has a great energy/attitude that I wanted to capture. It's looking good so far, so we'll see once I start getting into shadows and render 😅
Also, I will be flying back home tomorrow- That means I'll have access to my actual tab...

Hey Patreon fam!
I'm back from my short break, and kicking off this new year with a very brief guide on how I approach drawing shapes, and wanted to share it with you all here first.

What's up y'alls. Here's some more of my favorite sketches/pieces from the past few days. I've been better at getting in the habit of practicing my painting techniques just for fun; without having the explicit intention for sharing or using for content.
That being said, I think the two weird floating head people are pretty fun. It's been a while since I've exercised my knowledge on paint...

This month, let's take a look at my personal perspective and mindsets around creating art. I think this is a topic that I feel very strongly about, but sometimes can't exactly articulate my thoughts on it completely 😂 So bear with my unhinged rambling about stuff like perfectionism, art-block, mindfulness, and more.

Sketch dump time!! Heres a lil page of doodles and warmups from the past few days.
For warmups, i like sticking to my comfort zone- that being random car sketches and low-pressure thumbnails. I also have some anatomy and painting studies, serving as refreshers for myself on various techniques and fundamentals.

I recently moved, so my setup atm isn't anything crazy... but it gets the job done. One day I hope to upgrade, and maybe even have my own sort of office/art-room; but for now I'm super thankful to have the space that I have!

Hey everyone,
Here's some flats that I'm currently working on- I think I'll start blocking in shadows tomorrow. I'm pretty happy with how the sketch developed, since it started out as a really rough concept but became more refined with each sketch-layer overlayed on top.
Here's a lil gif so you can see how many tries it took me to get it looking right 😂

Hey everyone! Just taking a break from editing this month's video to show you a little landscape painting I've been working on, and what i've learned from it.
It's been a while since I've tried to build a full scene like this, since they can be pretty pretty tough to get looking "right" when taking into account the level of details and complexities that a landscape often has. Despite that...

I previously mentioned that I would drop a tutorial vid tomorrow, but due to some minor health issues, it will be delayed for a bit! Hopefully I can get it edited and posted within the next few days.
Just wanted to keep you guys updated. Sorry about that and thanks for your patience 🙏

Hey everyone, just wanted to share some color flats I just finished for a painting I'm working on.
I made the sketch on my iPad, then transferred it over over to Photoshop. The scene originally had mountains in the background, but I found that it compositionally took away from the car as the focal point... and also the square frame felt a little awkward to me 😭

Here are some flats I'm currently working on! Trying to take a more narrative/story-telling approach with this piece.
The hand in the bottom panel actually took a bunch of tries to get looking right 😅 it's a tough angle but I think it looks good for now
Regardless, I'm super excited to get into shadows and lighting! Glad I took the time to tidy-up these flats.

Robots are fun to draw!
Figured I'd paint another one of the sketches from my tutorial.
I was imagining this one as a sort of...repair/helper bot?- Featuring two arms for precision repairs, storage area for tools up top, and gyro-assisted propulsion mobility systems to get to those hard-to-reach repairs.

This was a fun one, guys 🚗
I actually ended up adding the lil guy towards the end, because I felt the scene was a little too empty/ lacking a defined focal point. He was originally standing up, but thought that him laying next to the car told more of a story!
