But first these cats.

Blue herons have been special to our family for many years as a sign of hope. I painted this #pastel #blueheron a few years back. It now resides with a very happy client in Washington State

Drawing this scene in pastel allowed me to really push the contrast between the dark alley and the vibrant, glowing lights. The reflections in the wet street were the most satisfying part.

Pastel drawing of The Creature from Guillermo del Toro‘s new Frankenstein Movie (played by Jakob Elordi). The portrait shows a gaunt man with sallow skin, long reddish dark hair and deeply cut scars across his face. He stares intensely at the viewer with dark eyes, his lips have a greyish hue and are cracked. He’s quite handsome.
I’m very taken with the new Frankenstein movie. The Creature‘s Tale is so heartbreaking and hauntingly beautiful 🥹🖤 #frankenstein #guillermodeltoro #jakobelordi #pastelartist #softpastel
