New work in the hopper

Works in progress, graphite on paper, prismacolor on gessoed board, and oil on canvas

I’ve been working on a few pieces to get ready for my upcoming show in February at Smalter Gallery. The sketchbook and graphite have been off to the side for a while though, so I thought I’d bring them back in the loop. There are only so many hours in the day, so it’s hard to find time to explore all that I want to do, but I’m happy when those little nuggets present themselves. I have a couple commissions coming up to work on, but I like throwing in a few personal pieces to keep the creative juices flowing. I like the way these smaller works on board are turning out (inspired by arts on fire 6×6). Feels good working with graphite again though.

Art Practice

I’m finishing up a commission but took a little time to work on a personal piece.
