I enjoy drawing and painting faces, figures, animals, scenery and anything else I can imagine. I take the emotions, experiences, people, and special moments of my life and combine them with my imagination to inspire the artwork I create. The theme I would like the viewer to experience throughout all of my artwork is my passion for life and all of it's wonders and precious moments. My hope is that it will inspire those who view it to connect to their own memories, emotions, and creativity too!
The media I use include, though are not limited to graphite, charcoal, conte, colored pencils, oil paint, oil pastels, acrylic, watercolor, spackle, acrylic polymer, eyeshadow, nail polish, spray paints and whatever else is within reach. I will use anything I can think of if I believe it will create the visions inside my head!
*I am currently studying the field of forensic artwork and will be taking classes in composite drawing (witness interview,) age progression, and reconstruction (post mortem drawing) soon. Please check out my new"Sketching"gallery below (bottom of page) where I am posting a variety of my facial drawing/ sketching exercises! Many of them were/are drawn live with an international audience on web TV! Contact me at: froggy70@comcast.net to draw your "mug" live while you watch!
