Sketch of Lauren Daigle
Late in 2017 and early in 2018, I was working on doing quicker sketches of people as an exercise to cover more, different people and hopefully get faster at drawing realism and portraits. The results weren’t as I’d hoped — and I was usually unhappy with how unfinished the drawings […]
Graphite and Colored Pencil Drawing of Singer/Producer/Director Steve Taylor
Move to Trash After finally seeing Steve Taylor in concert, fulfilling a longtime dream, I impulsively decided to draw one of the photos I took at a May 4th, 2014 concert in Manheim, PA. For the concert’s encore, Steve came out wearing his flashy jacket from the 80s and I […]
Pencil Drawing of Jaci Velasquez (Updated)

Mac Powell of Third Day Pencil Portrait
What’s interesting about this drawing of Third Day’s Mac Powell is that it’s the first pencil portrait I’ve done from a photo I’ve taken. I took this at Winter Jam 2010 in January and worked on it on and off for a couple months that year. Then my “studio” of […]
Leigh Nash Drawing Portrait
In July, 2012, I felt inspired by listening to the latest Sixpence None The Richer album, Lost In Translation, to work on a new portrait of Leigh Nash. I’d drawn Leigh years ago in college for my sister-in-law Mim (who’s a huge fan) and then did another one just for […]
