I utilize the pencil as I've always liked the feel of them and the textured effect they create on paper. They blend well and a nice sharp pencil is my best friend. The range of pencils I utilize varies from H - 8B, to the soft colored pencils of Pri...

Drawing has always been a hobby of mine and has come naturally to me. I am mostly self taught, but have taken a variety of art classes. Friends, family and strangers alike have requested artwork from me through the years. My main subject is horses, but I also enjoy drawing other subjects such as cats, dogs, wildlife, nature, and mythical creatures. I utilize the pencil as I've always liked the feel of them and the textured effect they create on paper. They blend well and a nice sharp pencil is my best friend. The range of pencils I utilize varies from H - 8B, to the soft colored pencils of Prismacolor. The paper that I draw on also varies, but my personal favorites are Bristol Board and Illustration Board.
