drawing and painting






A charcoal drawing and little portrait for the show on the 31st of
this month. I usually do drawings from life with pastel. Lately I've
been trying out charcoal. Its a little more tedious, but it has its
own appeal I hope.

Beautiful portrait!

Rob James said...

Agreeing with Jamin, that's a good looking portrait. There's substance in the subject. Can't describe it. Maybe I can when I'm older.

Beautiful works Justin! We really do need to get together for lunch. I got the announcement for your gallery last Thursday and am so sad I wasn't able to make it. Everything looks awesome as always.

Cool, Hey I was surprised to find you work on the mag cover at the art store. Congrats man, Up and coming huh? Don't forget your roots.
You should have a link to your website here, and your contact info there is not working.

How'd the show go? You need to put up a picture of the magazine cover your painting was on.

Was cool bumping into you last night at BYU dude. Let's all meet up again and have some lunch, you're like 3 blocks away dude!

You are like all famous now and everything. I feel like I shouldn't even be allowed to post on your blog . . . but I do love your pictures, and I have seen you naked, so I probably do deserve some rights . . .

Heidi said...

I know, that's why I wrote it. You deserve a reputation for more than just your paintings. . .

Brandon said...

Justin,
You have come a long way with your art! I remember when you used to draw your dudes on my arm in Mr. Zohners 10th grade biology class and tell me that you could give me permanent tatoo. Good luck with your art and i am glad you got out of the pool chlor warehouse. Do you have a studio in UT?
