STEP BY STEP ACRYLIC PORTRAIT

Hey friends,

Happy Sunday!  Some of you might know, I’m most comfortable working in ink, but you may not know that I do also do the odd painting.  This is a step by step breakdown of a painting I did of a dear friend a few years back.  I was working at a recording/photo studio at the time, and it was a great opportunity to work on my photography skills with buddies after hours.  One of my first shoots was with a good friend (who is also a talented actor, singer, athlete, and on and on…) who was gracious enough to donate some time for me to fool around with lights and a camera.  From one of those shots, I made this painting.  Thanks, Julia!  

I do love working with acrylics, but rarely have time with life, and family and Illustration work, but hopefully it’s something I can do more of in the future.  

Another post coming tomorrow.  Thanks for reading, I love you!
