    Those are amazing. I didn't know you did commissions. I'd love to get one done, but I heard you're too busy and don't do them.

  4. Good to meet you too, Marco. I forsee us hanging out a lot.

    Thanks, Tim.

    These are done in the same materials that many theme park and retail artists use: Marker and Colored pencil.

    More specifically, it's a Faber-Castell PITT brush pen with Prismacolor ART STIXX. I used a foam matte underneath the page to keep the paper texture subdued.

    Ryan- I take on commissions from time to time, but rarely with a deadline, as it just hurts the piece. Anyone can contact me for one of these - blog AT joebluhm DOT com.

  9. Who is the other commission for?
    I like the hard edges on the light and shadows. In on and around the nose, and feet.
