Amy and I had the pleasure of seeing L'Amante by Beth Cavener at the Chazen Museum in Madison, WI. This artist blew us away. I tried a new scribble technique for these sketch studies. I feel like it gave my form a bit more looseness.

I'm still a long way out and really taking my time on this, but here's an update of my journey into digital painting. The flats are laid out for everything. Next step is shading and highlights.

Here's a quick ink sketch while hanging out with Amy at Press Coffee this morning. They make a great London fog!

This is far from done, but I thought I'd share a new piece I've been working on. So far the digital painting process is tedious, but I'm still learning and enjoying the process! Let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions on what I could add or change.

This took me a loooong time to finish. It's not much, but I'm very proud of it because it's my first serious attempt at drawing in the new medium of digital art. I learned a lot as I worked on this piece and I can't wait to take it into new pieces and discover what new things I can create and bring in to traditional materials.

I think the most important message is that it can be very daunting to learn something new, but it's incredibly important to try! You will learn new things; which in turn means that you'll learn new things about yourself and grow. Thanks again to Amy Ford for the Huion tablet. I love my new toy. 😘

At Peace.

I usually ink my pencil pieces, but Virtute came out so well that I stuck to the graphite on this one.

My beautiful wife gave me a Huion Kamvas 13 art tablet for my birthday! Here's a gesture study I did. I don't know much about digital art, so there's a big learning curve, but I'm excited to learn and combine it with my other mediums!
