Hello and welcome to my art page!! I hope all who see my work will enjoy it. I have just barely turned 18. I have been drawing sinse i was very small and i was always good at it. my mom draws very well, and i guess i just picked it up from her ;). I have never taken drawing classes before and always did things on my own, often reading books, practicing and finding out ways to do things on my own. I mostly drew things like cartoons and characters from movies and comics, but  when i turned about the age of 10 and 11, i started to draw people; they didnt turn out as nice until i started to use the grid method to do my portraits. The first portrait that i finished using the grid method was "Michael Flatley" I drew it the summer after 7th grade. Sinse then i have drawn more pictures and developed new ways and technics to draw. 

         I also do commisson portraits.  I have one in my gallery "Kara and Keri" . It was taken from a 5 " x 7 " phtograph. I take a lot of time to do my portraits...sometimes i am working on them for up to 30 hours or more over a period of time. I hope to perfect my drawings so they will look more realistic than they do now.

          I have another website that i put my artwork on, and in some you will see how i have done them step-by-step before the finished product is complete, so feel free to check it out!!!
