Robert Griffin III; #10 of the Washington Redskins - Quarterback. Tablet-drawn in TEGAKI-E. Finish time: 141 hours 16 minutes.
FEATURED IN THE WASHINGTON POST - READ THE ARTICLE HERE:[link]
Anyhow, yes...this is my first NFL portrait! I bet you guys didn't see this one coming considering I've drawn NHL art for the last two years. Just messing with you guys...I draw portraits according to who needs what for articles...I think you knew that, though. Hopefully tomorrow Washington will win and make the playoffs. If you're a Redskins fan, pray for their victory!
Happy Holidays, Merry (late) Christmas, and a Happy New Year to everyone! This year's been amazing for sports art! I truly thank every visitor and fan who continues to support me and my portraits. I almost can't believe I have 3,279 followers on deviantART, but the statistics don't lie. Seriously, thank you!!!

When I went to your devart profile I thought "wow, this person has some pretty good photographs in the gallery!" ..But the fact that you have actually drawn all this leaves me speechless!!
hahaha yea, you and thousands of others who follow and comment. I actually like the feeling I can fool people so easily, and the fact I don't use Photoshop or other programs to create what you see (aside some scrapbook stuff and one of my fauvism portraits) really keeps people speechless. I just use a simple online tool called tegakie, it doesn't have hardly any tools with it aside an opacity bar and a few brush sizes...it's really nice and it reminds me of working with coloured pencils. ^u^
Tegakie is very very limited...like, you only get 72 colours. It's up to you to use one of the low opacity buttons and "shade it" correctly. A lot of people complain it's hard, but in reality it's just like working on paper, but with 10 undos.
heehee well the guy who wrote the article is my promoter and a close friend. He's been so much help to get me where I'm at and I'm truly thankful to you, him and all my fans for such wonderful support.
