Hi, I am the son of two artists and began painting in my hometown of Richmond, Virginia before I could walk. I was a rare combination of artist and athlete so I moved to Los Angeles in 2008 to play football for USC. I left the team my sophomore year to focus on painting and filmmaking, applying the same focus and discipline from my football career to my art. I primarily work in oils, and spend most free days painting "en plein air" in my new home of Sarasota Florida.

    so interesting. I can do an illustrative kind of face in pencil drawing. I shy away from painting faces. Making them realistic is difficult and then, how to go about painting the face seems even more so. I'm glad I watched this video as it takes some of the intimidation away. I know that I also have to practice at it as you stress. I will need to rewatch this a few times and then make an effort to try it.

    You’ve just answered a question that I have been unable to find keywords to research. It’s been a forever struggle to not understand how to become more detailed in my work. I do more fantasy oriented paintings with creatures, more sci-fi leaning. However I would spend so much time struggling with direction of light for details, that it just didn’t feel real enough because it didn’t shift properly. I can see the image in my head, but could never make it make absolute sense when only using shifts in value, and not my now newly added word PLAINs!!!! Thank you!!! (Hope that made sense 😂)
