Description
Personal work. This drawing was worked on little by little over the course of a couple weeks while I was waiting.
Some while waiting in the Dr.'s waiting room, while waiting on food at a restaurant, and waiting in the car while my wife runs in the grocery store for a couple items.
Graphite on paper
7x9 inches

I don't want to reveal too much! I don't have a "story" written for this but there is a bit of a story in the piece

Well, the night dreams get weird but are mostly average. My day dreams though... I'm grown up but I still go many places

yeah i know me as well, its kinda weird cause i read something saying how adults dream less, but as i got older the dreams came more and got more interesting. i wish i could some how turn them into art. though ive been trying. ah well

I have not given it any thought. There are many different "European" styles.
I think of the style as "me".

ok,what kind of artistic influence have you got?

Oh I think I understand what you meant before 
Well I have had many influences (there is a list of artists in my Journal on my main DA page). I would borrow certain characteristics I liked from a particular artist and over time those characteristics evolved into a style I would be comfortable with and call my own.
Genres I have been interested in and that have had some sort of influence on my artistic development are surrealism, symbolism, expressionism, impressionism, cubism, fantasists(technically not an art movement), children's book illustration, illustration.
I hope this answered your question.

Beautiful work. It looks like an illustration from a childrens story book.

Thank you! I've been trying to work my way into storybook illustration for awhile now and I'm sure this is a reflection of that.

That's an interesting idea of meeting characters I put in my artwork.
Thank you!!!

Yep. I like it. Agree with the comment about it being a little different from your color work; and this is a positive observation. The hair detail with the swirls/curls is great. Pulls the eye right to the center of the pic and adds a unique component. Swirl on, dude.

I quite like this one. It's a little different seeing your work without any colour, but I think it works well.

This is beautiful. I love the shading and the trees in the background. The swirls are a great touch too.

Thank you very much! It's fall so I thought I'd bring that crow with the orange back into action.

Ooh, beautiful and soft.
Subtle is the word, I think.

Yes it is the word. A little can go far. Thank you very much!

I really like how you do faces. It's got just enough lines to outline the facial features and structure but few enough so that imagination can fill in the rest.
Great job! I especially like the expressions.

I don't see you draw a lot of people. It's interesting
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I draw them, they don't get posted often. I try to keep to a universal feel with my work. That's why I use animals a lot. This way I'm not leaving most people out, unless you hate animals.

It's stunning.
Do you use also fingers to shade off graphite?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you very much! I use fingers and paper towels or paper napkins.

I really like this. It's very unique. Great style. Oh, and I know exactly what you mean when you say you did it while waiting. I tend to do some of my best stuff when bored.

Thank you very much!
