When doing any piece of artwork, I always post progress photos as proof of work.
On the left is a large thing by Jackson Pollock, where he threw a lot of paint onto a big canvas on the floor with no purpose other than putting a bunch of one thing onto another, then it wound up being more famous than a turd of a newly discovered dinosaur species.
On the right is a picture of a dog, which took many hours and looks like something; namely, a dog. Here are the progress photos of the picture as I worked on it. It’s not intrinsically better or even famous, but the person who got the drawing loved it.

Love this! Is it graphite?? This is a recent watercolor dog commission I worked on. I actually like pollock’s work. I get that it’s not a subject, but they are very balanced paintings and did stand out for the time. I think they have been way over valued for what they are, but that’s classic high art culture putting astronomical price to names.
Yes, my drawing is graphite. I do most of my stuff in graphite or ballpoint. I esp like these two media because they’re so portable and can allow you to do spur-of-the-moment stuff as well as bigger projects.
Your picture is fantastic!! You good post more stuff up on #artstr - there’s a market for commission art for sats here.
