Today, at 12pm PST, I’ll have these two new original small works you see here as well as three new cotton woven blankets. There are very limited numbers of blankets and only 2 of the Seven Silver Spiders available for those who are gearing up for the cold months ahead . The graphite drawing is approximately 16 x 20 inches on Moleskine and the second piece is an original oil over gesso on and antique silver mirror dating back to the late 1800s. Roses and leaves are painted in oil enamel. Hoping to make more of these mirrors soon before Christmas. They make me happy and they seem to make others happy as well If you’ve wanted one and keep missing out, DM me and I can create one especially for you.

Who or what controls your strings? Curious to hear what message or ideas you get from this image. These are some of the details of a pretty large drawing I completed back in 2018 titled “The Keepers”. Dimensions are 39 x 50 inches. I primarily used graphite but utilized some mixed media as well including charcoal, pan pastel, ashes, brake cleaner & maybe some whiskey.
Be warned, I’m gonna keep molesting you with hand drawings for the rest of the month but I’d like you to take part, too. I’ll be sharing some of my actual hand references and I’d like to invite YOU to share your visual interpretation of the material. I’ll share your images, drawings or whatever you’d like to make with the reference photos to my stories. Hope you enjoy.
Thanks @reybot for lending me Barry for this drawing. It’s always great to have legit references to study.
Happy day. I don’t know if I’m going to meet my self imposed deadline but I’m feeling alright with the progress on this crescent moon and can’t wait to take her to a darker place tonight. I feel guilty when I don’t meet my own deadlines so I’ll make a smaller drawing in the next day or two so I can move forward with a cleaner conscience Some of the ingredients I’ve used so far
My original drawing “Inter spem et metum” will soon be available for purchase in an online auction hosted by Imara Charity, an independent specialist service that supports children, young people and their family following a disclosure or discovery of child sexual abuse. Imara is working in Nottingham UK.
To get more information about Imara’s work, please visit their website, where you can donate for their cause or just simply ask for help.
Hello! Finally finished. And it was a struggle, so I’m happy to move forward from this one and start a new drawing. As always it’s graphite pencils in Moleskine sketchbook, size A4 and it is available as a fine art print in my Etsy shop www.etsy.com/uk/shop/JusabiArt…

Hello in 2017! Here’s a little piece I’m currently working on. I really want to push my pencil drawing skills forward so you’ll see my graphite sketches more often. And I’ve got a whole moleskine sketchbook to fill in #art #sketch #sketchbook #moleskine #moleskineart #draw #drawing #pencildrawing #pencils #pencil #graphite #graphitedrawing #graphiteart #artistic #artist #artstagram #fly #girl #woman #portrait #circle #blackandwhite #illustration #artist #workinprogress #work #pentel #fabercastell (w: Nottingham, United Kingdom)
I had the pleasure to draw @ockpii a sound, video game, movies and art enthusiast. He was really generous on how many hours he posed for this drawing… without that amount of time the outcome would have been a trainwreck! Swipe around to see the chaos that assaulted the construction of this portrait. thanks mate!
Recently Anthony Baus came to my studio @portoatelier for a figure and perspective workshop. This is my take on that week. The model was the most muscular human I ever drew… … I imagine guys like this back in the iron age resisting the occupation of the Roman empire… It’s been a loooong time since those events in the Peninsula but I really hope they gave those invaders a hard time…
Another exercise done at GCA in an unistructed 3h portrait session. The model was on her cell phone… extra hard… Also, I finally tried blackwings pencils.
Haven’t been working on much lately as I’m taking a break for mental health but here is a drawing I sketched last night ✌ . . . . . . #drawing #sketch #doodle #art #artist #wip #artistsoninstagram #artwork #artoftheday #artofvisuals #graphite #pencil #graphitedrawing #work #portrait #girl #stylized #style #blood #illustration #skin #light #dark #tone #workofart #painting #workinprogress (at Pencil Philosophy)

Last post of the year and finishing it with the #artvsartist trend! It’s been a bad and crazy year. A year we all will remember and most of us in a bad way. My chronic pain got worse, my engagement is dying and I’m not growing anymore here so I’m very unsure about my future as an artist, I’m scared of catching the virus and getting the long term sequelae added to my chronic pain… And I can consider myself lucky because even if I had a bad year, at least I hadn’t any personal great loss. If you have lost someone to this pandemic, or to any other accident/illness/disaster, I’m really sorry, and I know those words won’t ease your grief. The only thing that I can tell you is that it’s okay to take your time to grief, it’s okay to cry, it’s okay to feel bad. You will have to eventually get up again and keep up with your life, but if you need a pause and you can afford it, take it. And wish for you the best About the post, these are some of my favourite pieces of this year, and I hope I can keep making more the next one! Because I’m not sure about my next step as an artist, I plan when I finish all my commissions to take a break from them and think deeply about my art and where to lead it. I need to make of it a stable income if I want to keep surviving as an independent illustrator, because if my chronic pain doesn’t get better, working on my own with my own schedule at home is my only option of making a living. If you want to help my art grow, becoming a patron is always a great way, I’m planning a lot of new extra content only for my patrons for this next year. Checking out my store or dropping a Ko-fi are great ways to support my work too. All the links in my bio! I know not everyone can afford art, I myself rarely can afford it, so I feel you if you want but can’t. In that case, sharing or boosting my engagement by dropping a comment helps too so more people can find it! Anyway, thank you for sticking with me another year and hope to see you around next one!✨
