Pre drawn studio Caricature prior to live gig


 
I was able to finish 8 studio Caricatures for an up coming Christmas party I am doing a gig for this Friday. I used traditional Pen and Ink, Pencil, and Photoshop cc for digital touch ups. These are some of the Doctors and office staff that they wanted drawn prior to the party so they could mingle. Good night everyone 

Family trip to London England painting

It was great to be asked to recreate a memory a family trip to London England, by one of steady live digital clients. I was first asked to do a portrait Caricature style, but I had make more of traditional portrait style. My favorite part was recreating the English nature with rain, and the way the reference photo was already very colorful. 

Need form to have a client fill out, and painting of cousin Siri


Ok so I have client that is having a hard time trying to explain what he wants visually in three commission Illustration pieces wants me to do, is there a form or questions to have my client fill in the blanks? He actually wants me to met in person, but I think it is just better to write down his thoughts. 
I attached a painting #gift of my cousin Charlotte Brännsroms new baby Siri. My mother wanted me to do it for her. I did not have much time, but it has a cute factor she wanted. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and I look forward to what next year brings.

Study of a Frank Frazetta


I found this old study of a Frank Frazetta piece I did in my college days at Ringling College of Art and Design back in 1992 in a Fiore Custode painting class. It was not an assignment and I specifically remember I was working on it while my teacher was making a lecture, he was so cool about it that he actually encouraged me, thank you again for everything you have shown me.

The same goes to my other professors at the college, other artist, friends and family that currently constantly encourages me in my life as an artist. I am proud to say if I did not learn from my every day mistakes that I would not be what I am today. I will try harder to more focused on the constant battle of balancing family, work and fun!
