I love the look of this illustration. I have always enjoyed the homages to the classic recruitment posters. The layout is great. I agre...

Watchers

Greetings and salutations to this new year.

I don't like resolutions.  Only because there are usually two kinds: 1) Made because you can't really think of anything. 2) You need to make a serious change to your life but don't realize that simply saying it won't make it happen which results in failure.

Instead I have goals for 2012.  If they don't happen I won't cry over it, but I want to have a clear path for where I want to be this time next year.

I'm hoping to be able to do more artwork.  Not because I have to but because I want to.

I recently celebrated 10 years at my job which is quite a milestone for me and hope to add another year to that total.

I have given up on Comic-Con and hope to attend WonderCon.  Nothing against Comic-Con personally, I just don't like spending four days standing in one line or another.

I want to try and do more to connect with my peers here on DeviantArt.  I have had the pleasure of seeing some amazing artwork by very talented individuals and plan on trying to do more than simply add the artwork to my favorites.

Be a better person, son, step-father and husband.  Those are listed least to greatest in importance because my family always comes first.  Just ask my mistresses (kidding)

I hope to meet these goals with all of you.  If not, there is always next year.

Geronimo!!!!

Again, love your work. Do you have formal training and do you do this professionally?

Thank you. No I don't have any formal training. I took an art class in school but really learned from my own experimentation. As for doing this professionally, I have done several sets of sketch cards for Topps but it is not how I make my living.

Awesome, I was just curious. One of my teachers in high school was completely self-taught. She uses prismacolors as well and she always encouraged us not to underestimate the versatility of a No. 2 pencil. She did some rather epic Star Wars art in pencil and your work in a way reminded me of hers. Until the last year I'd only used pencils, but I've been trying to explore other mediums and stretch. It's always encouraging to see what people achieve with raw talent, that's why I asked.

Anytime. It was hard for me to try and start drawing in Prismacolor but I wanted to try something new and I'm glad I did.

Seriously fantastic portrait work. I love doing portraits but I'm nowhere near this level. Keep it up!
