New Section!

So its been awhile since I have posted anything, but I have been working on some new things.  Check out my new tab for "Painting and Crafts",  I have started to try my hand at painting...

Under Construction!!

I need to do some work on my blog, sorry for the inconvenience, currently there is no portraits or art to view but I will be re-posting them soon!! Thanks

Holiday Portraits

Unfortunately for an artist the Christmas season starts early.  I will be taking orders for holiday portraits, give that truly unique gift this year.  Perhaps a group portrait of all the children for mom, or a portrait of dad doing his favorite hobby!  Any orders that are received between now and November 1st will receive 10% off and FREE SHIPPING.  If you would like your order before Christmas, I must receive it no later than November 15th. Feel free to visit the Art and Pricing tabs for examples, or email me at pictureitsketched@gmail.com.  Thanks!

Hunting and Horses...

I had a client ask me to compose a portrait for her dad of his two favorite things...

Hunting and Horses.

No Erasing!!

So this is what I have been working on.  Its called Scratchboard, it a way of drawing in reverse, instead of black on white, you get white on black.  This type of art is less forgiving though, because once you scratch your line I found it hard to cover up since there is NO ERASING!

The current project

I am sure the thought is, is that I have forgotten about my blog but I assure you that  I am working on a new picture that I am sure you will all enjoy.  I will be posting it soon!!

A New Challenge!

I have always loved the Art's, anything that has to do with a blank canvas and creating a picture onto it, so I have started teaching myself the art of Wood Burning.  This buck is my first one, and it took me two hours to do.  I am very proud of myself...not because I think it turned out pretty good but because I did not burn myself while doing it!!!!!

The Great Lighthouse!

Lighthouses.... there are so many different architectural styles, and shapes, this is one of my favorites!

One of my favorites at the zoo...

Giraffe's are not only fun to draw, but they are fun to look at as well.  Their spots are a little difficult, its like trying to put a puzzle together.

Wildlife is great!!

Pictures of wildlife are so much fun to do.  I like to take the pictures myself and work from those, whether its going to the zoo or up to the canyons.  Here is one of my examples of the zoo!!

The Soccer Player and The Ballerina

Hobby portraits are great, I can usually learn alot about a person when drawing these.

The Bride

Capturing a bride one that special day is one of the funnest portraits!
