My Bio
How did I miss this section?

Well, my name is Tessa. Yall can call me Tessa.
I'm a portrait/pencil artist. And As you may see in my gallery, I've progressed A LOT. Comments are always appreciated. They are what keep me motivated to draw. And I do love being able to draw people. It's awesome!


Tools:

Using Charcoal, graphite, color or mechanical pencil
Drawing History:

I'm 100 percent self-taught, so no, I took no classes



...I've been drawing for 6 years...
I taught myself by watching others draw online and also reading art books and loads of practice.

Inspiration:

Art isn't always capturing the beauty of what you see, it's seeing beauty in what was captured.

Technique:

Traditional drawing with hand held tool. Can take years to perfect. Takes a lot of patience, motivation and commitment. It's also good for relaxation.

Timing:
A portrait/drawing for me takes 2-3 weeks to complete.

I have opened art commissions:

Hey guys! I just got my brand new computer so hopefully I can be more regular here than Ive been in a while. I'm now a full time artist, eek! Imagine working for yourself inside such a volatile field. But Its what I love to do. Of course it wont be my only stream of income but it would be nice if it could be. I believe it can with your help! My etsy store is up and running and I do sell prints as well, so please check it out here: etsy.com/shop/tgreenaway Anyway, I'll be posting more art soon! feel free to comment on my art work as I will be reading them! Thanks again for all your support over the 11 years Ive been here. It means so much!
