It Doesn't Hurt To Try

A fine art reproduction of an original 11x14 ink and watercolor painting mixed media paper. This reproduction is professionally printed on fine art watercolor paper. Why did I choose this type of paper? Watercolor paper is usually thick and the medium texture of this particular paper adds a nice touch to closer reflect the qualities of the original. Each reproduction will be signed, dated (according to month and year it was printed), and titled. This is an open edition reproduction. I would recommend getting this custom framed but if you're trying to save money, you can easily buy a mat and frame from your local frame store (I usually go to Michael's and use their on-going coupons). I would HIGHLY recommend bringing the reproduction with you when shopping, that way you won't be disappointed when you get home and realize, "hey that's not the right size!"

What inspired the original artwork?

Photo reference from the Sktchy app. At first I messed up drawing a face I didn't like so I stopped. Then I decided to draw over this face. I constantly remind myself to keep moving forward until it is finished and when it's finished, I'll know. After a year or two of using pen and ink I decided not to be so precise and technical. You can really only pull it off if you're a hyper realist. While I have a decent ability to observe and apply, I use my mistakes as a style that says “I meant to do that!” When in reality, they're reminders that I'm not perfect and that I'm still learning. There's a way to make accidents look “cool” on purpose and I guess I'm on the forever hunt to crack that code, who isn't?
