Phobia!


I just put the finishing touches on this project. It is a portfolio piece based on an ad for the Dictionary. The word being described in the picture is aphephobia... I'm sure you can determine the definition without any assistance, but if not feel free to look it up!

Some Sketches











I thought I'd post some sketches from my travels in Florida, NYC, and Los Angeles. Also a few from around my house.

Some New Artwork





















































This is a new piece I've been working on.
It is an image I created for the business slogan, "Staying the course." I thought that I would show a little bit of the process I go through while I work on a project. I usually start with a rough sketch like this one then I refine it with many tracing-paper revisions before I settle on the composition I like the best. Once that is finished I then produce the piece using traditional media, usually pastel and charcoal. When I've reached a point I feel comfortable with, I then upload it into Photoshop and work on the final revisions.
