Nuttall Art on TikTok

 To try and expand my audience (ie try to get more clients to buy and commission artwork), I've joined TikTok. I'll post videos of me working on art and photos of art. Bear with me because I'm still figuring it out. My "tag" is @nuttallart 

Please share to get the word out!

Invigorated in Art!!

 As the year 2021 begins, I've somehow gotten a new lease on creating art! I'm working on 3 separate projects of my own, and I'm excited to work on them, which I haven't felt that way about drawing or painting in...well, years, really! I don't know what it is, but I am enthusiastic about getting back to these projects every day! I even want to skip work, meals and sleep to keep at it!! 

These pieces are not being made to sell. Just for me and to maybe put in an exhibit, who knows? 

These ARE works in progress. The b&w graphite drawing of cartoonist (and idol) Sergio Aragones`  is 18" x 24"

W.I.P. oil painting of Sammy Hagar and the late Eddie Van Halen is 12" x 1 6"

this image is of my largest watercolor painting ever. I'm not much of a watercolor artist, so this is quite a challenge, at 36" x 24", or 3 ft x 2ft of Van Halen at the Whisky a Go-Go in 1992, I think? Van Halen has been my BAND since I started listening to music in 5th grade. All Van Halen was great, but when I discovered them, Sammy Hagar was the frontman and quickly became my favorite version of VH. This is my tribute to the band who could do no wrong (until Eddie fired Sammy in '96, that is). The VH pics are also in memory of my favorite guitarist (at one point in time), Eddie Van Halen.

I'm continuing my "Heroes" series by adding to my "Popeye" section. This is a watercolor painting on bristol board I have been working on. It's not done yet.

I DO have a YouTube channel that has videos of me drawing, painting, etc. in illustration and my portrait art.

Drawing Wimpy

Video of yers truly drawing Wimpy from Popeye the Sailor comic strips, comic books
cartoons and movies! This is part of a drawing challenge to celebrate 90
years of Popeye, who first appeared in Thimble Theatre comic strip by
E.C. Segar January 17, 1929. Wimpy was created later in the strip. #2019PopeyeChallenge #Popeye90

POPEYE'S 90!!!! Olive's 100!!! (well, December 18th, 2019)

Much like the Stan Lee January long tribute, I created a drawing challenge in honor of Popeye's 90th anniversary (1/17/2019) and Olive Oyl's 100th anniversary (12/18/2019)!!!! Each day in January, up to and including January 17th, you draw a suggested Popeye character, post it on social media and tag it with #2019PopeyeChallenge and #Popeye90! It's a way to spread word about the celebration of these LEGENDS!!!! 

I've filmed a few videos of me drawing some of characters. Day 2 was The Sea Hag!! Enjoy!

Stan Lee tribute, STANuary 2019 drawing challenge

     Ok, so as most of the world knows, Stan Lee passed away in November, 2018. His 96th birthday was December 28th. To celebrate Stan Lee's work, someone created a drawing challenge online called STANUARY Lee. Each day of January, artists are to draw a designated Marvel character in honor of Stan Lee. For example: January 1st was Spider-Man, January 2nd was Kingpin. The 3rd day was Black Widow. I chose to draw her in the Archie Comics style. The video is of me inking the 2 I drew. Enjoy!

Drawing Groo

   I've made another video, this time I did a Live Facebook video. I decided to draw one of my all-time favorite characters, GROO THE WANDERER by the Great Sergio Aragones`!
I give a little history on everyone's favorite dullard swordsman, as
well as on Sergio and answer some questions by a viewer.

Enjoy!

Spiky Thing 12 7 18

It's another video, this time of my all-time superhero character The Thing

Drawing Popeye

In honor of Popeye creator's birthday December 8th, I did a little video of me drawing one of my all-time characters. Sorry, I can't figure out how to speed the video up, so any videos I post are going to be long. THIS one isn't too bad.

Wolverine, Psylocke, Jubilee

I'm trying to do more videos of drawing, 'cuz, why not?

FLASHBACK to Michigan Magazine Show 1819

I was interviewed in 2013 by Michigan Magazine's Barry Stutesman in my now-defunct art studio. At the 11:43 mark...

You say you want a revolution, well, too bad. You get a drawing.

This is a graphite drawing I was hired to do of The Beatles. It's 11x14, which made the details in the faces PAINFUL to draw.

SOMEBODY likes me!
