This is to be used for the title page and cover to my third book "Pencil Drawings - The Male Figure", to be releases in 2010. In both hardback and paperback

It was left unfinished to show the process it took to complete the drawing, since that is the main goal behind the book. Showing others how I draw

I am a professional artist interested in meeting other creative artists and models who can network together to offer each other ways to advance in their goals and careers. And if nothing else, at least have some fun getting to know one another.

Born and raised in San Jose, California, I learned at an early age that drawing was a great way to 'escape' the world around you. Later in my late teens I discovered it could bring in extra cash, too! Cool!

My style in drawing has changed through the years, as a result of always trying to improve from the last attempt. Much like life in general, if you don't learn from your mistakes you can't move on and do better.

Currently I have several drawings on display in art galleries throughout the USA. One drawing in New York City, four drawings at an art gallery just north of San Francisco, and a few closer to home in Bakersfield, California.

Even once had a drawing at The Bakersfield Museum of Arts, for a summer, during their annual Small Exhibit show.

My drawings have sold through the last several decades and can be found throughout much of The United States, England, The Netherlands, Australia, Russia, and others. Much as a result of my website but more so though word-of-mouth.

Cool... keep me posted on how it turns out. Just take your time, and draw in layers. dont be afraid to use your lighter pencils over the darker ones. At first you will think its not working but as you cross hatch and follow the contour of the person/object, you will see the blending take place.
