What happens when you combine the faces of Derek Jeter, Jorge Posada, Alex Rodriguez Joe Girardi, Mark Texeira, Mariano Rivera and C.C. Sabathia? Hopefully some interesting art work. I started out with the computer program Paint Shop Pro 8 (a stone age version of Photoshop) to cut and arrange a photomontage. Next, I printed on thick paper. After that, I tied it together with a layer of color pencil. Finally, I put the finishing touches on with oil paint. The method that I use is called Tradigital Art. It combines traditional media (paint, pencil) with digital media (computer applications and digital photography).

Learn to draw Mario from Nintendo's Super Mario Brothers. There is a drawing demonstration in this video with a link to a step by step picture tutorial for new artists on my website (follow the link above). I made this drawing with pencil, illustration markers and Prismacolor colored pencils.

We NEED a Visual Arts Category on YouTube! SIGN OUR PETITION HERE- http://www.change.org/petition....s/create-a-visual-ar

This video is going to give you step by step instruction on how to draw an Occupy Wall Street protestor. All you will need is a pencil, some paper, a global recession and some corporate anger and you'll be able to draw this handsome fellow. Pause the video at the end of each step. Lets begin.

Step 1: Draw a rectangle for a sign.
Step 2: Draw a trapezoid shape above the sign
Step 3: Draw these shapes inside the trapezoid shape.
Step 4: Draw the arch shape for the pants. Be sure to make the pants really tight. Protesting in baggy clothing was so last year.
Step 5: Now I am going to challenge you a little. Draw this crown shape for the beard above the trapezoid shape. Also, be sure to notice the placement for the oval.
Step 6: Draw the upside down rainbow shape for the bottom lip.
Step 7: It was learned in a recent Quinnipiac poll that 94% of Occupy Wall Street protestors wear artsy Buddy Holly glasses. It is our job as artists to observe the world around us so add the nose and the glasses.
Step 8: Having Bieber Hair is the new comb over. Add the shape for the hair.
Step 9: Add the eyes. If you want to make someone look angry, leave some space between the Iris and the upper eye lid.
Step 10: Add these hot dog shapes for the fingers.

I use the artistic techniques of tradigital illustration to draw violinist/musician Emilie Autumn. I will show you how to blend traditional media with digital media in this mixed media artistic illustration technique.

I have a confession... I had no clue who Emilie Autumn was when my FB peeps voted for her......Once there is a little person in your life calling you DAD, you cease to be COOL anymore! So I googled her and she's a fascinating gal. I have only heard a few of her songs but she seems to be "Tori Amos with a Violin". Thats a big compliment.....Tori was huge to my generation! I am using 3 photo references for this mixed media artwork.And I am drawing EACH on a SEPARATE piece of paper. (The plot thickens)! OFF TOPIC: I once got in to a FIGHT with a VIOLIN PLAYER.......But I swallowed my pride and walked away......Because VIOLINS SOLVES NOTHING! I have MORE FUN working LOOSELY.....I am NOT trying to make this PHOTO-REALISTIC.....Artists are sketchy people!Now I am drawing the pants.....When this artwork is done....everything will be together. I will explain why I do this later..........Now I am drawing the pants.....When this artwork is done....everything will be together. I will explain why I do this later..........Pro's Tip: BUY GREY PAPER. If you draw on white paper....YOU'RE DRAWING ON A FRIGGING HIGHLIGHT!!!!! Neutral toned paper can allow artists to leave BOTH highlights and shadows. Pro's Tip: BUY GREY PAPER. If you draw on white paper....YOU'RE DRAWING ON A FRIGGING HIGHLIGHT!!!!! Neutral toned paper can allow artists to leave BOTH highlights and shadows.Just kidding! I gave her one leg because I am going to flip it in Photoshop. CONFESSION: I feel a lot of pressure when I draw because I know that everyone wants to learn how to get a realistic likeness. I ENJOY, stuff like (what I am doing in this video) MUCH MORE! I take a sketchbook with me almost everywhere. ......Like I said.....Artists are sketchy people! I use prismacolor colored pencils! They ROCK! Ideally, you DO NOT want to mix them with graphite pencils. They get smudgy (you should erase the graphite first).....but its OK....what I do next will fix things.I use prismacolor colored pencils! They ROCK! FACT: Emilie Autumn's hair is not naturally FLUORESCENT!!!!!! For the Record, the artist who draws the BEST HAIR on YouTube is SophieChan90. She uses markers too. CLICK HERE to visit her channel. But COME BACK!!!!!! Don't get mesmerized by the hair! That is a Decocolor opaque paint marker.

My friend Al Alvir has a very popular Boxing/Mixed Martial Arts blog- http://shootafairone.com/ and I decided to create a character for one of the writers he has on staff (O'Toole). Allen is a big fan of Mike Tyson (heavyweight champion) and his legendary trainer Cus D'Amato who also trained managed Floyd Patterson (olympic and heavyweight champion) and Jose Torres (light heavyweight champion) so I made this character with D'Amato in mind. I used D'Amato reference photos for my initial drawing but also had fictional "Rocky" trainer Mickey Goldmill in mind (portrayed by Burgess Meredith). Using these two icons; one from pop culture one from reality, gave me an interesting image to illustrate. In this video, I documented my process.

I started out with a pencil drawing that was based on reference photos of Cus D'Amato and fictional character Mickey Goldmill. Next, I cut out two boxing gloves from a photograph and glued them down. Then, I added a layer of illustration marker to quickly put down some color. I followed the markers with a layer of color pencil and I exadurated the wrinkles. I also use color pencil to prime the artwork for painting. Then I added some paint. The paint mixes very well with the color pencil. Next I scanned the artwork and opened it up in Paint Shop Pro 9. I didnt like the pose of the body so I changed it. (Arent digital possibilities wonderful?) I juxtaposed hands legs and feet. Then I printed it again. The print is like a dried layer of paint. I started layering with color pencil again and I followed it up with oil paint. Mixing traditional mediums with digital technologies is called tradigital art.

How to Draw Katy Perry- Extended Shading Tutorial. Music by Kevin MacLeod Incompetech.com
0:11- Notice that I am using a mechanical pencil. It has thinner graphite and it helps me create subtle tones for the features of the face.
0:21 Notice the difference between the upper eyelashes and the lower ones. The upper eyelashes are much darker. Use a 4B to 6B pencil on the eyelashes right away.
0:30 The pupil of the eye is darker in tone than the iris. You will see that I shade the "white" of the eye with the paintbrush. I pull some of the graphite over from the iris and the eyelashes. Do not go too dark though.
0:35 Watch how I use the paper stump to do the eyelashes. I "cross hatch" some lines, and then I spread the lines (graphite) with the stump. If you do not have a paper stump, use a Q-Tip.........And if you dont have Q-Tips, how the hell do you clean your ears????
0:45-- Do not go too dark under her eyes. Our skin thins and becomes more transparent as we age. Let Katy Perry keep her "Teenage Dream" and don't give her bags under her eyes......yet. It is OK to darken the area a bit because the eye protrudes from the eye socket (feel your eyeball NOW) and the area around the eyeball is almost always in shadow.
1:05 The darkest part of the mouth is the two corners.
1:26- "Float like a butterfly and shade like a bee"....In other words, move around. Do not get stuck in one place. Develop your drawing evenly.
2:00- Learning shading is like learning another language. You are translating tones. Get in the habit of looking at my reference image once for every five seconds.
2:10- At this point of the drawing and shading process, your goal should be to eliminate "lines" and notice the nuances of "edges". In other words, some shapes have solid edges, while others have softer edges. There is often a tonal difference as well.
2:34- Watch how I use the blending (paper) stump to soften an edge......Suggestion: Look in the mirror (right now) and notice the tonal and physical (hardness softness) differences of your face.
3:18- Every drawing has an "awkward" stage. This is the awkward stage for this drawing.
3:39- Notice that I am making points at the bottom of the teeth, between each tooth.

3:39- Teeth are tricky. Try not to keep the dark lines between each tooth. Generally, the upper teeth are more defined at the bottom, when a person smiles because they overlap the tops of the bottom teeth. Katy Perry's bottom teeth are not visible in this picture.
4:59- Hair has a lot of tones. I am going to start out with a 5B pencil and press hard to create solid straight lines in areas where there are a variety of "tones"- aka- light and dark "values". In generally darker areas such as the upper left, I am hatching in a neutral (half) tone, followed by darker values. Notice that this is the total opposite method of what I did for the skin of the face.
5:46- Hot tip- Use the kneaded eraser and the pencils eraser to create highlights.
5:46- Hot tip #2- Invest in graphite sticks (think really think pencils). You will see me use one in a moment.
7:27- Now, Watch me use all of my "tools" (brush, blending stump, graphite stick, eraser, finger) to get the effects that I want. Try not to use the fingers though because the oils in the hand will be absorbed in to the paper and the shading will be inconsistent.
9:28- It is important to darken (neutralize) the background of a portrait on white paper if you want the highlights to fully develop.
10:14- If the hair in your drawing looks like a "block" consider retouching the edges of the hair shape (as I am doing now).
10:31- I am making highlights with the eraser in the hair
11:21- I am starting to shade the body. Follow the same shading pattern as the face. The left is in highlight, the right is in slight shadow.
11:58- There are several slight shadows in the upper chest area between the two shapes for the hair. Take note of that as you watch me develop them.
12:33- The arm on the right (her left arm) will be about as dark as the shading on the neck.
12:55- It is common in portraiture for the background of an image to be the opposite as the foreground. For instance, notice that the highlight is on her right cheek and the background is dark. It switches on the other side. This is an old artists trick which works because the variance in tones moves the viewers eye around.
13:58- The last thing to do is to "soften" everything. Notice that I use the brush and the eraser a lot.

Prior to 2008, I had never ventured outside of the medium of oil paint. Life got HECTIC and I was forced to reconsider my approach. Here (below) is the story.
For the past eight years, I have taught art in schools in Harlem and the South Bronx and my technique was created out of a need that arose in my classroom. Forty five minute periods is not enough time to teach painting. So I switched my painting supplies from traditional supplies, to paint markers to eliminate the set up and clean up. After witnessing the success that my students were having, I decided to push the technique even further, while working in my studio. I learned that mixing color pencils with a "blender" (on top of the opaque layers of the paint markers) marker allows an artist to mimic the effects of glazed oil paint. I incorporated media "cut outs" and printed images in my work. And I found that paint markers were ideal to tie everything together. Finally I learned that scanning my images on to a computer will allow me to edit my "characters" and add crazy effects such as juxtaposing images on top of my creations. The computer also enables me to use the medium that I am most familiar with; oil paint. I usually print my compositions on canvas ( I order an non varnished giclee print) and lay down the finishing touches in oil paint.

Antes de 2008, nunca había aventurado fuera de la media de aceite de la pintura. Tiene vida agitada y me vi obligado a reconsiderar mi enfoque. Aquí (abajo) es la historia. Durante los últimos ocho años, me han enseñado en las escuelas de arte en Harlem y el sur del Bronx y mi técnica fue creada por la necesidad que surgió en mi aula. Períodos de cuarenta y cinco minutos no es tiempo suficiente para enseñar a pintar. Así pasé mi pintura tradicionales suministros de suministros, a la pintura para eliminar los marcadores de la creación y la limpieza. Después de ver el éxito que están teniendo mis estudiantes, decidí impulsar aún más la técnica, mientras trabajaba en mi estudio. Me enteré de que la mezcla de lápices de color con una "licuadora" (en la parte superior de la opacidad de las capas de pintura marcadores) marcador permite a un artista para imitar los efectos de cristal de aceite de la pintura. He incorporado los medios de comunicación "recortes" y las imágenes impresas en mi trabajo. Y he encontrado que los marcadores de la pintura eran ideales para atar todo junto. Finalmente me enteré de que mis imágenes de escaneado en un equipo que me permita editar mis "personajes" y añadir efectos como loco yuxtaponiendo imágenes en la parte superior de mis creaciones. La computadora también me permite utilizar el medio que estoy más familiarizado con; de pintura de aceite. Por lo general mi impresión composiciones sobre lienzo (que no una orden de impresión Giclee barnizada) y establecer los últimos retoques de pintura en aceite.

My process 1.) Sketch 2.) Illustration Markers 3.) Color Pencils and 4.) Oil paint. Sometimes I add even more steps with Photoshop, but I didnt for this portrait. I wanted to see how far I could push oil paint as a medium. I prefer painterly realism to photorealism (photo realistic stuff gets boring.....whats the point of simply reproducing a picture?). I was satisfied with the results, despite my unorthodox approach to making this....(painting? work of art? mixed media?....I dont know what to call it.) The markers were Prismacolor and Chartpak Ad. The color pencils were Prisma and the oil paint was Old Holland, Maimeri, Vasari, Bloxx, Grumbacher and Holbein Colors. I used Liquin as a paint medium. I used Flat, Round and Filbert Brushes and occasionally a fan brush (for delicate blending). This time lapse speed portrait consolidated four hours in to less than four minutes.

A demonstration of an illustration technique with illustration markers and color pencils. See more of my work Here: http://merrillk.com One hour compressed in to less than one minute (Time Lapse). A time lapse / speed draw demonstration in time for St. Patrick's day. I used a mixed media approach to draw this character. I used illustration markers (prismacolor and AD), color pencils and acrylic paint. The color pencils are great for detail and the illustration markers are a fast way to lay down base color. I used only white acrylic paint to cover some mistakes on the sides of the head. I also used a paint brush and mineral spirits (turpentine, turpenoid, paint thinner) to blend the color pencil to give this angry Leprechaun a more realistic look. I made the body separately and I used Photoshop to attatch the head to the body.(Check out some of my tradigital videos to see how I do that). Thanks for checking out the video- Merrill Kazanjian merrillk.com

Une heure comprimé à moins d'une minute. Un laps de temps / vitesse de démonstration tirer à temps pour la Saint-Patrick's day. J'ai utilisé une approche mixte des médias pour attirer ce personnage. J'ai utilisé des marqueurs de l'illustration (Prismacolor et AD), les crayons de couleur et de peinture acrylique. Les crayons de couleur sont idéales pour le détail et l'illustration marqueurs sont un moyen rapide de fixer la couleur de base. J'ai utilisé la peinture acrylique blanche uniquement pour couvrir les quelques erreurs sur les côtés de la tête. J'ai aussi utilisé un pinceau et minérales (essence de térébenthine, turpenoid, diluant à peinture) afin de mélanger les crayons de couleur à donner à cette colère Leprechaun un look plus réaliste. J'ai fait séparément le corps et j'ai utilisé Photoshop attatch à la tête de l'organisme. (Voir certains de mes tradigital vidéos à voir comment je le faire).

I have created over 500 illustrated characters in 2008. This video shows about 100 of them. Each character has one pose (with the exception of my animations) and are interchangeable in my compositions. I digitally juxtapose my characters over digital photos-where I feel that they fit. (Please see what I mean on my website Merrillk.com.) Some characters have been used only once and some have been used dozens of times. I strive for each character to become iconic and to make my work easily identifiable. Some characters are actual people (friends of mine or well known celebrities) and some are created as caricatures based upon people that I have interacted with in life situations.

He creado más de 500 personajes ilustrados en 2008. Este video muestra a unos 100 de ellos. Cada personaje tiene una pose (con la excepción de mi animaciones) y son intercambiables en mis composiciones. I digitalmente yuxtaponer mis personajes más fotos digitales, donde creo que encajan. (Por favor, vea lo que digo en mi sitio web Merrillk.com.) Algunos personajes se han utilizado sólo una vez y algunos se han utilizado decenas de veces. Me esfuerzo para cada personaje para convertirse en icono y hacer mi trabajo fácilmente identificables. Algunos personajes son reales de la gente (amigos míos o bien conocido celebridades) y algunos se crean como caricaturas sobre la base de personas que han colaborado con el en las situaciones de la vida.

Grab your pencils and paper because YOU are going to draw Amare Stoudemire, All Star Forward of the New York Knicks.,,,,,Whats that you say? Drawing Amare looks difficult? Well that's just silly talk. I don't care if you've never picked up a pencil before! Im gonna be your point guard and I will assist you by making this difficult task as easy as possible. For example, hit the link in the video description and you will be taken to a webpage with photos and text to accompany this video. In other words, this isnt a half court shot, this is a slam dunk. So if you want to learn to draw, dont get left behind like Steve Nash.....grab your pencil and lets begin.

Step 1: Draw the shape for the jersey. It is about three times as tall as it is wide. Leave enough room on the top for the head and the bottom for the legs.
Step 2: Draw in the three shapes that you see. The first is similar to a banana and the second and third are circular. Notice their placement compared to the jersey shape.
Step 3: Add in the arms.....Wait! Dont freak out! This step is easy if you see the 2 trapezoid shapes in between the arms and torso.
Step 4: Add Amar'e's basketball shorts and his legs. Together they are similar in height to his basketball jersey.
Step 5: Add the shape for the neck.
Step 6: Sculpt the hands out of the shapes from step 2. Use the original shape as your guide.
Step 7: Add the folds and the star to his shorts. These do not have to be perfect.
Step 8: Add the star and the upside down house shape to his jersey. Ignore the head for now. I will give you a close up and detailed instructions on that in a minute.
Step 9: Use the nagative space to sculpt out the letters E.A.S.T. in the upside down house shape.
Step 10: Add the number one below the star and the word "the" above the word East. Also darken the collar and add the shapes for the folds on the shoulders of the jersey,
Step 11: Add the four shapes for Amare's mouth and facial hair. We will add more shapes to this in the next step. For this step, it is helpful to notice the diamond shape around the mouth.
Step 12: Add the line that I just added to form the top lip, below the moustache.
Step 13 is the trickiest step. There are 7 teeth visable. The two front teeth in the center. Three to your left and two to your right. One is blocked in shadow. Notice that there is more space below the teeth than above the teeth. Draw what you see.
Step 14: Add the nose shape. Notice where it lines up to the smile lines from the previous step. It is ok to shade the nostrils very dark because they will be in shadow.
Step 15: Extend the head and draw in the shape for the eyes.
Step 16: Add the ears. Notice that the bottom of the ear shapes line up with the bottom of the nose.
Step 17: Add the hair.
Step 18: Add the eyebrows.
Step 19: Add the shape for the eyes.
Step 20: Shade the eyes. Notice that the lines get thicker as they move towards the ears. Leave a small space in each eye for a highlight.

Now its time for you to choose a shading tutorial, so click on the image of Amare's body to go to the body shading tutorial or his face to go to the tutorial for the head. When youre done be sure to check out my tutorials on Michael Jordan, Kevin Durant, LeBron James and Kobe Bryant.

What do you get when you "Photoshop" Bruce Lee, Steven Seagal, Jean Claude Van Damme and Chuck Norris? - There would be lots of spin kicking, artificial testosterone, bad hair pieces,ex wives and Martial Arts trophies. This superhuman would be able to enter any dragon or Kumate; and would be very "Hard to Kill", so dont mess with them, or else you will end up in a "deeper plot" than a bad 1980's movie.

I used Photoshop CS3 and Paint Shop Pro 9 to merge the faces of these movie superheroes. I depended heavily on the digital scissor/ quick selection and magic wand tools as well as the smudge brush and the lighten and darken tool.
¿Qué se obtiene cuando "Photoshop" Bruce Lee, Steven Seagal, Jean Claude Van Dam y Chuck Norris? - No habrá un montón de spin patadas, testosterona artificial, piezas de pelo malo, ex esposas y Artes Marciales trofeos. Esta sobrehumana podría entrar en cualquier dragón o Kumate, y sería muy "Hard to Kill", así que no meterse con ellos, o de lo contrario puede acabar en una parcela de más "que una mala película de 1980. Yo Photoshop CS3 y Paint Shop Pro 9 de fusionar los rostros de estos superhéroes de película. Yo dependía en gran medida de la tijera digital y la selección rápida y herramientas de varita mágica, así como el pincel y la mancha aclarar y oscurecer la herramienta.
Qu'est-ce que vous obtenez lorsque vous "Photoshop" Bruce Lee, Steven Seagal, Jean Claude Van Dam et Chuck Norris? - Il y aurait beaucoup d'effet coup de pied, de la testostérone artificielle, mèches de cheveux mal, ex-épouses et Martial Arts trophées. Cette surhumaine serait en mesure de pénétrer dans un dragon ou Kumate, et serait très "Hard to Kill", donc ne mess avec eux, ou bien vous allez vous retrouver dans une parcelle de «plus profonde» que d'un mauvais film des années 1980. J'ai utilisé Photoshop CS3 et Paint Shop Pro 9 de fusionner les visages de ces super-héros de cinéma. Je comptais beaucoup sur les ciseaux numérique / sélection rapide et baguette magique des outils ainsi que la brosse et la tache alléger et d'assombrir l'outil.
你当你得到的Photoshop李小龙，史蒂芬席格，尚格云大坝和查克诺里斯？ - 将不会有很多旋转踢，人工激素，坏根头发，前妻子及奖杯武术。这超人将能够进入任何龙或Kumate，并会非常很难杀死，所以他们请勿乱用，否则你将结束在一个更深的阴谋了比坏1980年的电影。我使用的Photoshop CS3和Paint Shop Pro 9合并这些电影超级英雄的面孔。本人在很大程度上依赖于数字剪刀/快速选择和魔术棒工具以及刷的污迹和减轻和变暗工具。何を取得するときに"Photoshopの"ブルースリー、スティーブンセガール、ジャン=クロードヴァンダム、チャックノリス？ - が多くなる、人工テストステロンキックスピン、悪いヘアピース、元妻や格闘技のトロフィー。この超人的な任意の龍やKumateを入力できるようになる、とされる、非常に"ハード"キルになるので、いけない彼らに手を出すか、または他の場合は、"深いプロットに終わるだろう"悪い1980年の映画より。私は、これらの映画のヒーローの顔をマージするPhotoshop CS3とPaint Shop Proの9を使用。私は大きくデジタルはさみに依存する/素早く選択し、魔法の杖のツールとしてだけでなく、汚れブラシを軽くするとツールを暗くする。Que você começa quando você "Photoshop" Bruce Lee, Steven Seagal, Jean Claude Van Dam e Chuck Norris? - Não seria muita rotação chutar, testosterona artificial, ruim para o cabelo, ex-esposas e troféus de Artes Marciais. Esta sobre-humano seria capaz de entrar em qualquer dragão ou Kumate, e seria muito "Hard to Kill", por isso não mexa com eles, ou então você vai acabar em uma trama "mais profundo" do que um filme de 1980 é ruim. Eu usei o Photoshop CS3 e Paint Shop Pro 9 para mesclar os rostos desses super-heróis do filme. Eu dependia fortemente da tesoura digital / seleção rápida e ferramentas de varinha mágica, assim como o pincel e sujar a clarear e escurecer ferramenta.

The Art Gallery Alpha Males rock it out in the New York Subway. Kunst recites a poem that he made about MFA's or Masters in Fine Art. This is also meant to be a critique of early twenty first century "Art World" culture. Mentioned are the artists Damian Hirst and Andres Serrano. A short film by Merrill Kazanjian Merrillk.com. I sampled the fantastic U2 track, "Desire"from Rattle and Hum, in this four minute fifty second movie. The Art Gallery Alpha Males are meant to be a parody of New York City Art Gallery culture; which is often referred to as, the "Art World". Also mentioned in this film is Adolf Hitler. Kazanjian wryly penned that Adolf Hitler was a MFA- A "Megalomaniac From Austria", even though he was rejected from art school and became a dictator who murdered millions of innocent people. Kazanjian criticizes that there is a market for his work (Hitler art sold for over 200,000 dollars in 2006).Francois Pinault, Larry Gagosian , Sir Nicholas Serota, Glenn D Lowry, Samuel Keller, Eli Broad, Charles Saatchi, Matthew Slotover, Amanda Sharp, Frieze magazine and art fair, Bruce Nauman, Jeff Koons, Damien Hirst, Brett Gorvy, Amy Cappellazzo, Christie's, Robert Storr, Iwan Wirth, Zwirner & Wirth, Marian Goodman, David Zwirner, Gerhard Richter, Marc Glimcher, Jay Jopling, Mike Kelley, Paul Schimmel, chief curator, Museum of Contemporary Art, LA, Andreas Gursky, Cheyenne Westphal, Tobias Meyer, Barbara Gladstone, Thelma Golden, Studio Museum, New York, Victoria Miro, London, Dakis Joannou, Richard Prince, Don and Mera Rubell, Donna de Salvo, Shamim, Momin, Chrissie Iles, Whitney Museum of American Art, Daniel Birnbaum, Portikus Gallery, Frankfurt, Steven A Cohen, Michael Govan, Simon de Pury, Phillips de Pury auction house, Sadie Coles, Robert Gober, Eugenio Lopez, Bruno Brunnet, Nicole Hackert, Philipp Haverkampf, Francesca von Habsburg, Jeffrey Deitch, Nicholas Logsdail, Lisson Gallery, Thomas Hirschhorn, Iwona Blazwick, Whitechapel art gallery, London, The Wrong Gallery, New York, Jeff Wall, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Serpentine gallery, Ingvild Goetz, Pierre Huyghe, Tracey Emin, Gilbert and George, artists, collector and gallerist, Dominique Levy, Robert Mnuchin, Harry Blain and Graham Southern, Roberta Smith, New York Times, art critic, Herzog & de Meuron, Swiss architects, Jerry Saltz, Village Voice, Frank Gehry, Javier Peres, Christine Macel, Centre Pompidou, Paris, Eileen Norton, Los Angeles collector, Rosa and Carlos de la Cruz, Ralph Rugoff, Hayward Gallery, Max Hetzler, Berlin-based gallerist, Miuccia Prada, fashion designer, Neo Rauch, Gerd Harry Lybke, Carsten Holler, Maureen Paley, Zach Feuer, Ai Weiwei,

Title of Artwork: Caffeine Junkie Coffee People

Art Supplies Used: Prisma Markers and Color Pencils + Oil Paint + Photoshop

Art Process: It was made with a variety of media; both traditional and digital (tradigital). I started out with pencil and sharpie markers, to set deep base tones that will be seen after several layers are added. Next, I used illustration markers as a quick means of adding the first layer of color. Next, I used color pencils to create a layer of translucent, blended color. The color pencils also serve as a ground for the oil paint layer (which is next). I use oil paint because it is so versatile, it can be applied thin or thick and it is easy to mix a range of colors- which is important when you are mixing flesh tones. I finish the artwork with oil pastels and color pencils. Then I scan it, cut it out on photoshop and juxtapose my two characters over a digital photo. Please comment, rate and subscribe if you wish! I try to answer all of my comments!
