Want to be part of my Drawing a Drawing 365 project? Here's your chance to join the fun!!! :aww:

For those who haven't heard, I am drawing 1 portrait every day for 1 year to help fund a full-length drawing/painting tutorial via Kickstarter. Those who support the project have the opportunity to be one of the "days" in the 365 days and have their own unique and meaningful personal portrait drawn.

In appreciation of all of the love & support I've received from this project…

    I'm giving away THREE free portrait days!

To ENTER, please visit my blog HERE.

THANKS AND GOOD LUCK!!!

Hi Michael! I'm a huge fan of your work and I'm doing a sort of artist profile for a school project. Would you mind answering a few questions when you have some spare time? I'd really appreciate it. Keep up the great work!

1. What inspires you to draw/paint and what does your subject matter (namely people) mean to you?
2. How long have you been drawing and painting?
3. Do you have a specific name for style you paint in?

Thanks,
Asia :)

Hi I'm a huge fan of your artwork and I was wondering if you could help me! I am a young artist in a national art contest and the only way I can be selected in the top 12 is with your help by voting with a FB 'like' for my piece @ ([link]). If it isn't too much trouble could you please spread the word that would help me greatly! Thank you for anything you can do!

I found your work through Kickstarter. Brilliant idea man! Glad you got so much funding.
You've got a beautiful style; really inspiring. Makes we want to take up the traditional tools again and work on my portraiture (I haven't done a traditional portrait since high school!).
I'll be watching :D

Awesome gallery! I just had one question though, I noticed that you utilize graphite in your works. Do you mean that you're using it for your outlines, or for the final work itself?

Your work inspires me very much. Every time I watch your videos on youtube, I want to take my brush and start painting - immediately! Then there is a huge deisre for drawing inside of me. (I hope my English is good enough to make clear what I feel... I am not sure xD)
I am not good at painting yet, but you abet me to exercise and improve.

Excited abput your 365 project. Hope to get the money to be one of the faces!
Have fun!

I first saw your work on Youtube, my first reaction was creaming myself but than a few minutes later I'm like "Wait fuck this guy for honing his skills to perfection!" So obviously I want to have your paintings children.
