My “Doty” piece was featured in GeekandSundry’s Online Gallery for this weeks episode of Critical Role! ( You can see it tonight during the broadcast on twitch before they start and during breaks!) It is an honor to be featured amongst talented peers!
If anyone is wondering which one is mine, its this one
Yet another of my drawings posted on social media adapted for wordpress
Can you believe that this is my first time drawing a bear? I’m glad it was Trinket, the best armored bear in all of Emon.

For those of you that follow me on social media you would have already seen this, but for those that do not I wanted to share with you!
Here’s the finished version with Pike Trickfoot & gold detailing. SHES A MONSTAH

Hey to all of my art friends that are short on funds for paid programs to make art with, I have discovered yet another free digital painting program for MAC and PC!
It is called Krita.
It’s open source software for concept artists, digital painters, and illustrators.

I plan on playing around with it for awhile and giving my review,
I want to see what you guys can do after playing with it for awhile!
Have fun!
I know I don’t post often or much about myself personally and for good reason…
It’s mostly due to a deep depression in my art and fear of health issues that was hard to emotionally navigate and get through for several years during my undergraduate career. Since I have graduated in December, and also have been unemployed for about 6 months a strange form of irony seemed to creep up on me.
Good Days Comic, India Ink on Comic Board, Graphic Illustration course 2014
This was one of our first assignments for the class and one of the first times seriously trying out a comic format in a traditional media. I had a lot of fun especially drawing the puppy. (But of course I would) One of the most challenging things was trying to depict the public bus transportation and not make it look too detailed.
Another sketch from the Acropolis Museum that had beautiful drapery that I was able to practice.
Diona (or Artemis) and Aprhodite, East Pediment Parthenon, Acropolis Museum, Greece, 2014
This was a piece I did in my own time to work out some of my frustrations. I even forgot it and left it unfinished for over a year and picked it back up and finished it within the day. This is one of those pieces that I can continuously come back to and add more and more. It might evolve later in my life but for right now this is where I like it to be.
Below are some of the process images I took while painting this piece ( when I was fully expecting to finish it within the week but that didn’t happen)
This is a small collection of artistic resources that I have saved up over the years in my bookmarks and use frequently. For any artist wanting to brush up on technique, or for the budding creative that wants to try their hand at the basics and let their skills grow, this little list is for you!
Athenian River God ( Illissos or Eridanos), West Pediment of Parthenon ( The Eris “contest” of Athena and Poseidon). The Acropolis Museum, Greece, 2014
This was from my Summer Study Abroad in Greece back in 2014. This particular sketch was done at the newly constructed acropolis museum with the pediment plaster copies. It’s a real shame that they weren’t the originals. They would have looked magnificent in that space.
