inspiration

One of my biggest inspirations for my art is people. I love drawing people that I know or just random ones because everyone has their own look that is very specific to them. Each person has something about them in their look that makes their personality show. Everyone has a unique look and I like making come to life because you can see so much of the person since you have to look at every little detail. People always have a story behind them and are always thinking so it's interesting to capture it. I like creating semi-realistic or realistic pieces most of the time.

  1. My inspiration is somewhat similar to yours because I love to take black and white photography of people. by using black and what you can easily make someone's emotion sad. Black and white can really change the mood of a photograph, and that is why I like to use people at my subject when taking black and white photography.

  2. I agree!! I always get inspired by "people watching". I love watching how people react, their movements, their expressions, how they dress, talk, present themselves..everything. I agree that people have their own unique style and I too like bringing that out and expressing it in a way that they might not have thought about.
