Here’s my process for my semi-realistic portrait of Tanya. The video’s a bit long–the interesting bits are probably in the first 5 minutes, and the rest is me going back and editing/checking for errors. Because I’m going for a more realist...

Oscar Wilde once wrote, "Life imitates Art far more than Art imitates Life". And in this case, it may be true! I wanted to share some stuff that goes on behind-the-scenes when it comes to creating art (and writing). Here's a selection of my real-l...
