I can’t stop myself from buying more art supplies. Seriously, it’s becoming a problem.

I have all of the markers and tempera sticks that I need, but still my monkey brain goes: “is that a set of pastel tempera sticks?!?!?”

Some art working on my portraits.

So, it’s time for another Friday collection. Like I said on a recent post, I have been spending this week trying to play around with new techniques.

I haven’t been posting anything for a few days, because I have been working on something new.

This is part of that.

So, up until now I have mostly been focusing these drawings I on portraits and landscapes; the thing I am best at and worst at, respectively.

One thing I have been neglecting, is structures, but no longer.

I tend not to draw famous people, mostly because I don’t think it’s that interesting.

This, like all of my pieces, was taken from a random reference on Pinterest. However, a wild Vin Diesel appeared.

I am starting get a better handle on these desert landscapes, which means that people are now starting recognize the places I draw.

So, Friday has come around again, and with it; the Friday dump. This week is kind of a modest dump of illustrations.

I have a real problem with pastels. In fact you might say that a pastel color palette is one of the easiest ways to get me to dislike your project.

So I decided to make a pastel drawing today.

My comfort zone, when it comes to art, is definitely portraits. I particularly love playing around with expressions.

One of the funest social media that I have opened myself up to, since leaving most Meta platforms, is Pinterest.

This was based on an image I found there.

I draw a lot, like a lot a lot. And as such I always have several drawing by the end of the week that I never post. That is why I’m gonna start a new series today, called Friday afternoon dump

Let me know what you think of these?

My Achilles heel when it comes to drawing is rocks and maintains. I don’t know why, but those suckers trip me up at every turn.

That is why I find cause to celebrate whenever I make a piece that is just ok; like this one.

One of the things that I have been working for my landscapes, is working from the outside in.

This means that trying to focus on the large planes of the landscape first and then moving into details later.

I have been working on my landscapes these last couple of weeks, but sometimes they just don’t work out super well.

When that happens, I go back to what I know I’m good at; portraits.

I got some new toys today, chief among them a new penicillin case… though can you call it a pencil case, when it’s the size of a large lunchbox and still not able to hold all of my art supplies?

I realized that I haven’t really shared the process of my landscape pieces, which is a crime. These two images show the process at two different stages.
