I just came home from a life drawing session. I was flattered by all the comments and attention my art received. It’s encouraged me to sign up and keep posting work myself. Thanks!

Thank you! I’m enjoying the Lemmy community so far. I appreciate that the comments here have had some thought put into them (a refreshing change from Instagram).
I sell pieces myself and through a gallery in Auckland, New Zealand. I post worldwide.
You can DM me if you want to chat more. Check me out on Instagram if you have it @dominiquemarriott. Or have a look at my gallery’s website.

Oh fantastic, thank you! I’ve just set up a Matrix account so you can contact me there as well. @dominiquemarriott:mtrx.nz
I was turning my phone to see if I could trick people by printing this and hanging it in my room at some weird angle so that they wouldn’t notice what it was. Good work :)
I love the fluidity you bring to the human form. Something that appears so easy, but alludes most who try to mimic it. Wishing you continued success.
Like I said in one of your partner’s posts, they remind me of Picasso’s line works but yours seem more expressive. Maybe it’s partially due to how you, uh… “create shapes” with the width of the line as well?
Did you, by any chance, use ink to paint this? I’m into fountain pens, and this almost looks like the iron gall blue-black that I use.
This was painted with ultramarine blue fluid acrylics, but I usually use sumi ink
How did you get the various shades? Or does that paint do that naturally? I’m not a painter, so forgivee if that’s a dumb question.
Not a dumb question at all. The variation of shades comes from the amount of water mixed into it. But I can also get some variation from how much I push down on the brush.
