Here’s a look behind the scenes at one of my signature illustration pieces in the works. I do a good mix of en plein air, but also photo reference studies. I spend about 2-3 hours a morning at coffee shops doing studies varying from 2-3 minutes to longer 10-15 minute studies of people, clothing, and sneakers. The photo reference studies are a mixture of people I know and photos I find aesthetically interesting. Below is a sneak peek at one in the works.
