What separates Spork (@DominicLaRiccia and me) from other drawing artists, is that we possess the communication and visual skills to draw out of your head. Whether they are very abstract, or metaphorical, we have an exceptional capacity to distill them down to easy to digest visuals. Visuals that compel and sell. From thumbnail sketches, to illustrative realism to full digital photo comps. Commiss
ioned portraits in charcoal, pastel, all types of traditional and digital mediums. Concepts and storyboards to technical illustrations. If you need it drawn, we can draw it. We blend in with teams of any size and at any point in the creative process. Our clients will use us from the napkin sketch phase through to handing off detailed color concepts to world renowned photographers and CG firms. Sometimes the photo illustrations we create end up going to final art, or they choose us to illustrate final art. And sometimes our engagement ends with s few sketches. We've been drawing since we could pick up a pencil, and we love it. We love the nonstop variety. The endless array of challenges. The great clients who count on us. We approach everything we draw with passion and energy. We know how lucky we are. Need something drawn? Call me. Email me. Text me. Send me a telegram. We'd love to draw it for you.

This one was a challenge, working from two different reference photos with two different light sources. And labradoodles have this amazing fur that is difficult to capture in grayscale.
