How to Paint Dreadlocks in Oil

Painting dreadlocks in oil is simple but can be a bit time consuming. I've developed an easy technique that I'll be sharing with you today so you can just relax and enjoy the repetitive and meditative process when you decided to tackle some dreadhead art of your own.

Portrait Drawing Timelapse :: Bobby Aragon

Welcome to my pencil portrait drawing timelapse of the amazingly fierce Bobby Aragon! I really enjoyed creating this piece featuring the interesting upward angle and his super gnarly dreads.

And even though Bobby looks like a force to be reckoned with he is actually a big sweetie and a tender father - and a super talented jewelry wrap artist to boot! So watch him come to life today with some super fun 'n funky music.... 

And if you'd like a little more info about getting your own portrait created by me have a looksy right here

Drawing a Dreadlocked Muse in Pencil

Welcome back to the studio! Ever wonder how to draw a set of sweet dreads in pencil? Well wonder no more! I've the tutorial just for you today ;)

I am so enamored with the gaze of this knotted muse and I feel like this portrait holds more questions than answers, if you get my drift. At times it seems I can almost get to know someone through the connection of drawing them....

So sit back and enjoy the show! And check the show notes below the YouTube video for info on my specific supplies.
