About a hundred years ago I wanted to become a painter, but I chickened out. These days I draw / paint very rarely, cuz it reminds me of how great it feels to be creative (a comodity I can't afford these days, due to substantial lack of time). Even less often do I show any of my works to anybody. Today, however, I've been to a gallery and this guy told me that artworks should predented to the people or else its a waist of time and material. So I've decided to display some of my recent works at prince.org. If you happen to draw/paint/design, I would love to see your works.

Thanks for the feedback . Since you like the one with the laughing man, maybe you'd also like these two.

Thanks for sharing...I really like 'Man laughing' and 'Melancholiac'..

You do seem to capture the life essence very well.....
Which makes me ponder the first one even more....

Yep, you got talent


I used to be into my art stuff such as acrylic, pastel, charcoal. Still have my portfolio which I've kept.

I should get back into art again

But I've recently gotten into song writing which I've always wanted to do.

nice technique.

really nice work...you should have your stuff on display at a top gallery...

Your work really jumps out atcha!
I really like your style and techniques. Please tell me what you used and on what.

Thanks.

Thank you guyz for your comments . I didn't expect to get so much attention.

As far as the techniqu is concerned, I mainly use pencil and charcoal. I'm not very good at painting. If I have time to do some art, I prefer to stick to drawing and computer designing. I work sometimes with pastels. But 80% of my work is done with pencil.

I also find it very refreshing to rework my designs with Photoshop.
Apart from drawing, I also like to retouch photos.

Thanks again for your attention. I really appreciate yall.
