Eric, The Artist.
I'm a fully self-taught artist, initially starting with graphite. After a break of 20 years, I began drawing again a few years back, this time with coloured pencils.Early 2017 I switched to pastel and pastel pencil and loved it (and still do). I prefer painting portraits, both animal and human, but also like doing flowers, landscapes, ... As I believe a good artist is never content about his work, so I still consider myself an amateur, and continue to learn every day.
