Some people have been asking about my process and the steps I go through when completing a work, so here is some explanation, using my newest work, Decima.

1. First I sketch out a pencil study. I try to get all my mistakes worked out in this phase. (Sometimes I get too excited and render the whole thing.)

2. I lay out a light pencil sketch on the paper.

3. Next come some light acrylic washes. 

4. I usually get really excited about finally using colors, and render the face all in one go.

5. Little details still need rendering. This is the point where I have to step back, consume lots of tea, and tell myself, yes, I can still do this.

6. The work is done! It’s photographed, posted online, and I get to send it off to whatever contest, class, or client it’s for.
