Drinking some delicious decadence tea from @crescentmoongifts while I work. Probably one of my favorite teas outside of my staple, jasmine green tea. . . . . . . #artistlife #artist #tea #drinkingtea #teatime #teatime☕️ #artistoninstagram #artistontumblr #artistontwitter #artistonfacebook #artistonflickr #nomakeup #needtofixmyeyebrows #acrylicartist #acrylicartistsofinstagram #raven #bird #peeringovermyshoulder

Pretty much got all of the shading done, except for the raven. I work from light to dark, making a pass across for each new “layer” with a darker pencil. This is about 17 passes ranging from a super light (10H) to a fairly dark (6B) pencil. I absolutely LOVE my Mitsubishi pencils! . . . . . . . #art #instaart #artstagram #instaartist #artistsoninstagram #artistontumblr #artistonfacebook #artistontwitter #artistonflickr #graphite #pencil #blackandwhite #grayscale #tone #mitsubishi #hiuni #mitsubishipencil #raven #bird #norse #viking #sword #shield #death #winter #corpse #wip

Started the outline for a new painting, which is a companion piece to my Odin’s Messenger (you can find prints of him on my website). This is what most of my paintings start out as, a black and white drawing on paper. Here, I can get a feel for tones. Before this, I take all my reference photos into photoshop, and place them around to get an idea dew of scale. There will be a complete time lapse of the drawing process, once it’s completed. . . . . . . #art #instaart #artstagram #instaartist #blackandwhite #pencil #graphite #pencildrawing #raven #bird #viking #norse #death #corpse #eye #winter #snow #odin #huginn #huginnandmuninn #fauna #artistoninstagram #artistontumblr #artistontwitter #artistonfacebook #artistonflickr

Who’s this sly guy?! Well, he’s part of a larger painting that’s a part of a series. Soon he will be revealed, but until then, I’m just excited to post a snippet of the whole thing. . . . . . . . #art #acrylic #painting #thumbnail #artistsoninstagram #artistontumblr #artistonfacebook #artistonflickr #artistontwitter #steampunk #guy #trickster #god
