I can totally believe it, Jason. These pared-down designs are so hard to do well. There is great subtlety and very very close observation in this. Best of all, it remains painterly and expressive--not a dry academic rendering.
I am a Seattle based artist who paints and sketches the world around him. I am primarily a figurative painter (please checkout my website!).
I paint everyday, and my blog showcases the small paintings I work on to sharpen my eye, loosen my brush, and to grow my skills.

I'm a big fan of your pencils. Eraser end or sharpened end--I don't care.
Thank you Don. They are deceptively simple.
I say deceptive, because I have a hard time believing that I spent more than a couple of hours on something so stark.
And yet, I did...!
:)

Thanks Don, you're very kind.
