Michael Johnson

A throwback from the past. 

BB King

This may sound far fetched but I honestly think that if your doing a portrait of a musician it helps to listen to some of their music to help get you in the right mind set and establish a feel for the best route to take while drawing, painting or sculpting the musician. I had fun with this one and ole BB King has some pretty good music.

My apologies to those of you who check my blog from time to time. I have been real busy with work and I just moved into a new apartment which is a very time consuming activity. In the mean time I have been working on a personal piece, if feels good to say that, "Personal Piece". Its of BB King one of the blues legends. These are some earlier stages of the drawing.

A little color pencil never hurt anybody.

Another sketch. To add color or not to add color, that is the question?

I decided to digitally paint the sketch in the previous post. I have done my last four pieces of work in acrylic so I thought I should switch it up and do some digital stuff.

This was a sketch that I did a couple of days ago. It's good to get back to sketching on a regular basis.
