I've been MIA for more than a year. Yes I know, plenty had happened that caused me to neglect work and my blog.
I stopped sketching for a few months last year and I actually felt like I'm missing something. But I managed to pick my pen and paper up again and now I'm back!
well enough talk, here are some recent sketch and doodles that I did

Yes I know you are wondering whats with the gory red blood stains, I don't remember what I was thinking when I did those.. I assure you its not paint, not real blood.

I even painted a tote bag.
During my MIA period I started illustrating my friend's pets and framing them up for a cost.
But I stopped after a couple of months as its too time consuming for me and I had to concentrate on other works.

Each portrait is painted digitally with photoshop brushes, I painted every strand of hair with care to bring out the texture and contrast.

Here is a picture of Cody the Pembroke Welsh Corgi beside his portrait. His owner wanted his painting printed on stretched canvas.

This is Parco, my Uncle's dog who passed away peacefully of old age last year. I did a portrait of Parco for his family and framed it myself.

There is a child-like quality in your style which is so natural and pleasing. People spend a life time to find it...Don't lose it!
Really impressive artwork. I wish I have the courage to pursue art when I was younger. All the best!!
