I have always enjoyed creating portrait illustrations inspired by close family and friends. These works explore facial expression, mood, and character through a combination of traditional media, including pencil, ink, oil pastel, and oil on canvas.
Several of these portraits were created for the Sktchy App, where artists reinterpret photographic references in their own style. The series also includes a self-portrait. Together, these pieces reflect my interest in observational drawing, expressive line work, and mixed media experimentation.
