About | Ran Art Blog

In addition, I do commission artworks, usually portrait drawing.
Pencil drawing.
Pen drawing.

And, texture drawing.
I started painting at a very young age, especially drawing nostalgic cartoon characters & superhero figures.
When I grew up, I engaged in computer graphics, mainly 2D and 3D graphics and web developing.
After the birth of my daughter, I devoted several years for figurative pencil drawing before starting my artistic journey for realistic painting with oil paints.
When it comes to oil painting, I focus primarily on landscapes, seascapes and the animal kingdom, but I paint other subjects too.
Realistic oil painting is a challenge and a craft that combines knowledge and experience.
Science has its importance when drawing or painting realism. Understanding physics, optics, geometry, perspective, and climate, can help a lot.
The combination of hard work and constant research leads to growth and evolution.
