Kevin Ferrara - more
Here's two drawings... Both began life as ink on paper, but the first one's been photoshopped, cropped, distorted and flipped. Other than that, it is exactly as I originally imagined it

Here's an oil painting...
Struggling with getting this to look right on screen. Lots of dust particles on the painting
and some digital weirdness happening in the conversion process...

Nice stuff, I really liked the two inked pics in post #4, great composition and dynamism in those. The oils look great too!
Welcome to the boards and post some more!

Some oil studies from life
Just did these in the last two weeks from the model. About an hour and a half on each. A totally exhausting sprint and not enough time to finish! Digital photos don't quite look right either, but you get the idea. (whine, whine, whine...)
Thanks to everybody who's commented so far!Last edited by kev ferrara; July 4th, 2007 at 11:31 PM.

wonderfull work, the ink drawings are strong and dynamic!
One critique would be that sometimes there is too much "dynamics" so the eye just swooshes back and forth.
just my two cents
cheers
