need better photos but looks interesting to me. Why didn’t you start with pigskin then find friends willing to let you practice on them? My Mentor was very against me doing art on myself for a couple of reasons. I used pigskin for 1 year before laying ink on my cousin with the mentor watching. I’m excited to see more photos.

Yes you can use any spirit paper but make sure your getting the real stuff made in USA. The other german and chinesse stuff was horrible. Also you will have to lighten the image a lot to get a soft stencil unless you can adjust the printers pressure but mines not that high end.

Pretty amazing for such a quick start. I would advise you to practice a ton on pigskin when your not doing people. Take as many health classes and learn as much as possible and never stop learning about how to keep both you and your clients from illness or injury. You’ll be amazed at how easy it is for that. Do other art mediums, it’s helped me to…[Read more]

WARNING – You have to look at Windows site for driver compatibility to your OS. I was luck to know to look for that. You can not just buy and hook up. Also look to make sure your using the correct file format for the printer to read. SO check out your Operating System compatibility with your chosen Printer.

I would say just from my experience so far that you should have a serious spread of different subjects for your portfolio. I noticed that most portfolios are narrowed down to the artist ability. I would make a portfolio of the stuff your super good at in the first few pages, then the stuff at the end that shows you’re brave enough to do art your…[Read more]

Ok so the update. I have done the hand and a few cards. I know it’s a little sloppy (its all covered later with background) and the face is showing my work now. I have learned so much about overworking, new skin and yellow (damn you yellow!) The Face was done with a Rotary, the hand is done with a Coil setup for line and shade.

if you ball your fist, hold your arm straight out then rotate your wrist. If that really hurts then you need to see a doctor. On the maintenance side you should buy a wrist strengthening tool like a squeeze ball or vise. I draw a lot and do two things, first thing is every 5 minutes i look up from my art and look 5 feet away at something for 5…[Read more]

I like it. Looks like you were working on some solid areas of the body. Which one was the most challenging? I like your fairy the most, pretty clean stuff (what size needles did you use?)
