Hi evan.

Your doing great. Besides the contrast issues, I noticed that there is a very slight imbalance in the jawline from the right to the left side. Both of them are good, but which ever one most portrays the subject, match the other side to it. Drawing women is a tough one for me. It only takes a minute change in a line to look awkward. Keep working on this. A head-on shot is so difficult to draw. A 3/4 view doesn’t have the balance demands and easier to draw, but we must use what we are given.

Are you going to use a thermal transfer of your art, or will you be using a hand stencil? If it will be done by hand, it will be critical to follow the orginal lines very carefully to maintain the balance and shape of the face and its features.

That’s it from me. Please keep us updated on your progress.

I really like your Heart Art.

I’ve spent the last two hours on your web site. I enjoyed every minute of it. You’ve done a great job putting it together. Most of my time was spent in Gallery One. The thoughts about each image were terrific. I’ve been to a lot of Artist sites, and very few put themselves out there like you do. Seeing a persons thoughts and feelings portrayed in their art is a special thing.

What is really great, is there so many Gallerys yet to visit. You’ve got a real Gold Mine there. Thanks for making it available for everyone to share. Awesome.

Thanks, so much, for the comments.

I would really jump at the chance of an apprenticeship, and will not rule it out. I have often thought how terriffic working in a shop would be. At my age (67), the chances of that happening are on par with being part of the crew on the first mission to Mars. If it happens that I find an apptitude that has commercial value, seeking an apprecticeship would be in the cards. Right now I’m in an explorational mode. I don’t plan on being your standard, scary, scratcher. If a scratcher means you don’t work in a studio, then I want to be an extremely safe, doing it all the right way, scratcher. My age may be limiting in some ways, but retirement gives me unlimited time to study.

I have always drawn and doodled my whole life, but Tattoo art is something I am now just beginning to attempt. The flash sheets I have seen on the net include some outstanding art by extremely talented artists. I used my art talent, such as it is, to a great advantage when I had my own print shop. Drawing characters of clients for advertising pieces, and graphic design for camera ready art came easily. (Camera ready art has almost been totally replaced by computer applications now.) It will be interesting to develop a portfolio of Tattoo Art. I search for images of finished Tattoos often, and done so for many years. I absolutely love the stuff.

I have been on this forum only a couple of days, but I already appreciate the talent that is here. It is awesome to find a group of this caliber willing to share, discuss and grow in this art form. Thanks to everyone.
