Cezanne vs Prismacolor

One of the things that tends to stop some artists from creating is feeling like they need to create a large elaborate piece. The sheer  time required to do that can be intimidating enough so instead, they end up creating nothing at all. Getting feedback from my customers on their custom portraits always makes my day. Here is a recent one I did of my pup’s brother Fuji. Swipe to see what my client had to say about their piece.❤️ In case you missed my reel from the other day here is the finished portrait I did of my dog @camaro_theshiba 🥰 Settling back into a regular routine after a vacation is always a challenge. Thankfully it was a short week but it’s felt like an even shorter weekend! It’s been a very busy May working on a bunch of projects in the works. Unfortunately, that also meant not having a lot of time to create art. A little sketchbook mixed media piece I did the other day. ☺️ The weather is finally turning around and the grass is getting greener. What do you like most about spring? Some days you wake up inspired to draw. Today I decided to create this piece of my dog @camaro_theshiba from a photo I took a few months ago. The light was perfect and the snow sprinkles on his face just made the whole scene feel magical. ❄️ Something about drawing and painting oranges makes me think of summer. 😊 I don’t know about you but I’m ready for warmer weather. 🍊☀️ Just a little skull in a sketchbook. 🙂💀 I wanted to explore using different colours on a coloured background to study value and shape. This sketchbook is roughly 8x8 and is the perfect size for me to do a decent sized exploration without feeling too overwhelmed by the size.
