This is a pencil drawing of my father-in-law I finished just prior to starting inktober. I did my best to try and breath life into a very blurry 50 year old photo. #pencildrawing #pencilportrait #vietnamveteran #armystrong #hooah https://www.instagram.com/p/B5Czu_jB9Xb/?igshid=1f2eqlp4ajv1h

I know I haven't posted in awhile but all the pieces I have produced lately have all been Christmas gifts. I didn't want the recipients to see their gifts before Christmas. I am sharing this gift because it is the gift to my wife, now if you know my process I use the tv as a monitor and draw at the couch next to my wife, so she has seen every piece as it is drawn. So needless to say this is not spoiling any surprise. #pencildrawing #charcoaldrawing #coloredpencildrawing #mixmediadrawing #blackandwhitedrawing #portraitdrawing #photorealismdrawing

Drew this back in September of 2019. I never shared it because I thought it wasn't very good, but the more I look at it the more I like it. I drew this completely out of my imagination, no reference at all. What do you think? This is 18"x24" graphite on newsprint. #graphitedrawing #animalstudydrawing #greyscaledrawing #freehanddrawing

The picture on the left is one I drew in 2009/2010 when I was in the Army. The one on the right I just finished. Good to see that I have in fact improved over the years! #pencildrawing #graphitedrawing. #charcoaldrawing #artimprovement #drawingprogress #freehanddrawing #evalangoria

Didn't get a chance to share this yesterday, this was the gift I gave to my brother of my niece and nephew. 8.5"x 11" 120lb cardstock, #touchnewmarkers and #leisureartscoloredpencils, took about 15 hours for this piece. #colorportrait #coloredpencildrawing #graphicmarkers #alcoholmarkerart #mixmediadrawing #portraitart. Also wanted to let you know that I am now on Fiverr.com, https://www.fiverr.com/share/jj2BQG if you would like to get a portrait done!
