Tints, Shades, Tones Value – Part 2 Tints, shades, and tones. While we’re still on the subject of value, I’d like to very briefly cover a few words you may have heard and maybe even used in the past. You may have even used the words tints, shades, and tones interchangeably, but there is a […]
A Brief Note on Color In a Nutshell… I am going to touch briefly on color in this post. In last week’s post, I shared the link for a free Skillshare class I did a couple years ago called How to Draw: The Very Basics. In it, I started off by covering the basic elements […]

Myra and I have been friends for 25 years. Over the years, I have watched her art progress from fantastic to simply spectacular.

I’ve commissioned two pieces from her to hang in the lobby of the building where I work. Each piece was completed flawlessly and within the time frame given. I love Myra’s art so much I wish she’d pick up a tattoo gun and put some on me, permanently.
