Born in the Philippines and raised on the island of Guam, Arnel has been creating art since he was 9 years old. He enjoys long walks in the park, sunsets, and the works of the Alphonse Mucha.
A Q U A S O D I O
A friend of mine, Cara (@aquasodio), asked me to do a portrait of her about a century ago. You can check out her website at www.aquasodio.com. I was so pumped with the results of yesterday’s painting that I finally got on the ball and started on it.
Like yesterday’s piece I did the line work in pencil, skipping the inking process entirely, then just finished it off digitally in Photoshop.
All art by Arnel Baluyot.
