Have you considered painting and/or working on a larger scale?

I really love many of your pieces. The colors and the way they blend into each other,....just incredible. You certainly pay attention to the details. Very, very nice. I can't really find the right words, because like others who have already commented, I'm in awe. The size of this piece really makes me wish it was about ten times bigger. I don't usually consider buying other peoples' art because I figure if I like something, I'll just paint/draw it myself (because I need to save as much money as possible for canvas and paint),....but this I would most likely buy, if it was much, much bigger. Love it. Thanks for sharing.

thanks for your comment, i also wish it was bigger. 10x bigger would take me forever though, maybe someday...

lovely almost organic looking piece... the colors are beautioful and rather unexpected--which i appreciate. the shading, gradation and linework lend a soft feathery feel to the piece. its delicate and simultaneously agressive. :sits in awe:

i enjoy how its simple towards the left outside, and then becomes more complex towards the middle right...
do you do this because you have the talent, or do you do this for a living?

what a stuning work. How amazing it is that its colored pencil and pencil work. It's superbly intricate and delisciously rich in color and texture. How long did it take to achieve?

I can't remember exactly, it wasn't one of the longer ones, maybe a week. I lose track of the actual hours, I should keep up with that better I think. Maybe 2-3 hours per day, just guessing.

This one just earned a favorite
It's so soft and warm and welcoming.
It's distracting me too much to say much else about it right now haha.

maybe its because of the firey coloured palet you used or prehaps the un flowerlike ness of it

These are really great colours, bold more than bright, but still with a lot of energy. There's a great sense of motion here & I like the long curves.
Really nice.
