There is no specific amount of time, since each piece is unique in its making. But to try and answer the question, paintings have taken up to 3 months off and on, and some drawings I have completed in less than a day. Average ink drawing is around 24 hours.

Yes, However I am very selective on what commissions I spend time on. I try to keep my work consistent with my style to create a fluent body of work. Most of my time is spent on growing my body of work to display at exhibitions. Check out my Book Online section to book a commission piece today.

I grew up studying insects, animals, and nature in general. I find inspiration in almost all walks of life around me. Music plays a large percentage of my inspirations. Also dreams, both asleep and daydreams. But if we are speaking other humans. I'd say Salvador Dali, Van Gogh, Disney, Gustave Dore, Aaron Horkey, Revok, Craola, Rob Dyrdek, Tai Lopez…

Make sure there is a good concept incorporated into your work. Practice drawing smaller thumbnails prior to painting. Also before you start, make sure your composition is on point. Add higher contrast, add more refined lines, add better lighting, experiment with perspective and plains of space and time. For me it's all about the details. So to help yourself improve, when you think you are complete with a drawing, go back in and rework it another 1, 2, 3 more times until you are really complete. I would also recommend studying old masters and even current modern day artists to get into their minds and see the small things that make them stand out. Of course you don't want to copy, but rather expand on their influence with your own creativity and vision. I feel patience also plays a big role in completing a great piece of work. And most importantly, have fun while making your artwork.

Nothing in life is easy, so if you have talent it will just make the hard work a little easier. Continue to work every day on your artwork. Believe in the process. Make your artwork gallery quality, something you would be proud to display at a exhibition. Treat all around you with respect and remain humble. Only competition there should ever be, is with yourself. Do everything in your life with good intentions. Read art marketing books. Be in constant study mode, keep going, you got this!
