that ol' thorny devil..

Just wanted to throw up an old ink drawing of a thorny devil lizard I did a while back. I actually did end up digitally rendering this guy, but I truly preferred the simple contrast and line purity of the original here.

2 years or so later...

With this post, I am hereby restarting my artblog!

For my premiere piece I present to you the love of my life, Gwendolyn Marzano.

I completed this piece as birthday gift for her upon her request for an illustration of her donning the full armor of God from Ephesians 6:10-17. I began with the traditional line work of pencil then ink, and then utilized some acrylics in an almost watercolor approach. Anyone who knows me as an artist understands that I just love iconographic halos and so we have one featured on Gwen as well. What can I say, she's my angel after all!
