You have really awesome pieces. I love your style it's got a loose and raw feel that's perfect for the emotional tone of your work. I love it.

awe geez ^-^ I assure you i am a total amateur!! 

You have a great deal of variety, while not missing a step when it comes to quality. I would wager you have quite a bit of experience and knowledge when it comes to artistic theory. Your lifelike pieces are stunning, detailed and clear. 

I'm completely flattered that someone like yourself enjoys my work!

For me art is about expression not just representation. Your pieces make me feel. Amateur or not that is a hard thing to do. Many people spend a very long time trying to do that. Keep at it. Your work is great.
Thank you. I have been drawing since I was 3. I have gone through many phases. The last 5 years I have not drawn hardly at all. I started back drawing for my 5 year olds snack bags for school. I have to say I didn't realize how much I missed it. I can feel the rust falling away. I am hoping to spend some time doing more realistic pieces once I feel warmed up. Maybe finish that Hook piece. It started great. 😂

I drew a bit as a child, probably between ages 10 and 14, but I never showed any of it to anyone and I lost all motivation for it. Before I put this account together I hadn't drawn anything in probably 10 years

I've always loved art and music. I guess I was just kinda holding it back for all these years and bam suddenly I'm drawing and making music again. It was so cathartic, im sure you know the feeling having experienced a hiatus yourself!

It's funny, maybe two months ago I was completely convinced I couldn't draw at all 

You're probably pretty busy being a parent, I cant imagine you have a ton of time to work on your art but I hope you are able to.
