Some more Stick Figures...

I've been enjoying a short time off from doing shows for the last couple of weeks and have been spending a lot of my time in the studio. The work list....a lullaby book, two portrait commissions, a tattoo design, a new series of bird / fairy paintings and a very special painting involving our little boy. I've been getting up very early lately and it's been great to start the day drawing. I've recently been using sepia pencil and gesso on sepia mat board and it's been a lot of fun. Below are some more Stick Figures that I did using this technique.

Reflection

Hello Everyone!

I hope that this post finds that you are doing well. I have been busy doing arts festivals for the last few months and haven't had too much time to create in the studio, but I awoke this morning deeply inspired to create a little something.


This picture is more of a personal piece. It is called "Reflection" and it symbolizes faith and that not all reflection is inward. Having Faith helps me not to focus on myself and to be able to let go and let God.

This original was created using sepia pencil and gesso on mat board. It measures 5x7 inches.

God Bless,

~James
