Commissions are back open. Pay me to draw something for you! I could draw your company’s Christmas card or your son climbing out of Simon Cowell’s mouth or whatever. Doesn’t have to be his mouth, could be his ear.

A realistic painting of a sketchy red brick graffiti covered variety store, seen over the back end of a blue Ford compact car.
