Dropped off my “Dear Journal” painting for the HoCo Open 2019 art exhibit. If you live in the #ellicottcitymd area plan to stop by! Art is much better in person 🥳

Shipping out one last painting in 2018 🎁
On this New Years Eve let me take a minute to say thank you to all of you who have followed me on my art journey!

2/100. This is going to be a long challenge 😐 It’s funny the imperfections you don’t notice until you step back and take a picture!

In an effort to improve my portrait skills I thought it might be fun to take on the 100 heads challenge. I think the actual challenge is 100 heads in 100 days but I plan to stretch it out a bit among other things.
1/100 This is an awkward picture to start with… but I have to start somewhere. I basically sketched this whole thing out in pencil and then tried going back to add color. And the results are… not good. Also my proportions are off but I didn’t feel like going back to fix them 😑 Luckily things can only get better from here….
