That poor guy as a caricature. So very kind. *runs and hides faraway*

Hahaha I love the mixed opinions
My 9-month-old sister saw this and starting grinning up a storm and squealing for all she was worth. Then my 14 year old sister saw it and she thinks it's just terrible to do that to a person.

LOL that's hilarious

Waaaaaaaaalllll, (stretches), good days. I got hired to teach a kid art once per week. Never thought that would happen. Hopefully I will get more students! Very much an answer to prayer. Literally a day after I prayed about getting a job that has to do with art so that I don't have to give it up. Now I'm praying that this teaching thing grows.

OK I am really happy with this one. The sketch was Jason Seiler's, the assignment was to paint over it.



This is exciting. There was stuff in the assignment such as the eye HAS to be moved down, that is not accurate at all. The sketch had the forehead too indented and the body and shirt collar were not in the right spot. That was part of the assignment, was to fix those.

Edit: Hahaha! I didn't realize this is EST. I don't stay up late, I promise, it's only 6:51 over here. I suddenly realized I look like a party animal.

That's great! Your work is always so inspiring!

Congrats! Hope it goes well!

Can I ask who this is? Why does he have a Star of David on a chain?

There is your answer but I don't know why he has a Star of David on his chain.

It's Jason Seiler's neighbor, who is Jewish. Why do people make a big deal out of that? I put it up for critique on conceptart.org, one person had an actual critique, another five people had plenty to say about the fact that he's Jewish. It's Seiler's neighbor, who let himself be caricatured. Big deal.

I don't think it's a big deal I have a friend that's Jewish

I was just wondering why he had a star of David and a kippa (skull cap). I wasn't being a critic

Yeah sorry I probably came across as being a little angry. Anyways, now I've moved on to Johnny Cash for my assignment, I'm not super duper confident about it because it's actually my caricature this time but we'll see how it goes.

I hope it goes well!!

Ze mon Johnny Cash. I'm not super confident in this one because I was the one who had to do the caricature part. So... going to watch some feedback lessons and see what others did and what Jason Seiler suggests to them.

Hmmmm, It's pretty good/ I would definitely say it is not your best work. You did a really good job on it though

Value paintings are still so hard but not so scary.
Yes I have been drawing I just forget to update my blog and here and stuff. I submitted a Kim Jong-Un to the Weekly Standard after sending it to Gary Locke, we'll see what they say. Bracing myself for a rejection letter, as usual.

Oh, and I should put up BB-9E! I completely forgot about that one too.


It turned out less than stellar. Both of these did. It's hard to do value paintings.

Oh my word wow that is funny!

Learn how to draw that!
