Much happier with this Procreate painting. Getting a little more free with the brush strokes and the colour palette works really well. And it’s a skater! #skateboarding #skate #skating #skateboardart

Delighted to share a piece commissioned by a good friend of mine. Enormous fun to do as the subject, front-man from the visually stunning rock band `Ghost`, is such an engaging character. #ghost #ghostband #rockportrait #portraitart

Finally getting the hang of Procreate (old dog, new tricks and all that). Just need to loosen up a bit. #procreate #procreateportrait #digitalart #digitalportrait #portraitart

My Dad has always loved pirates, so I’ve had a go at painting him as one.

Captain Stead! Ah-harrr!

@MartinRowson @SwissRich71 @nicklyonsart @jonrob5000 Woohoo! High praise indeed. I’m just off to crack open a blue nun and eat her brains.

Loved every minute of painting this beautiful cat, Elsa. It’s so nice to be asked to paint pets!
