Professionally, I have no experience.
I do, however, have a lifetime of drawing experience. My favorite subject is, of course, the automobile. From Kindergarten until today I have enjoyed this God-given talent and continue to improve on it almost daily.
My technique is nothing extra special. I first create a sketch of an idea, refine it, and then create a darker line drawing over top of the sketch. Often I will erase the sketch marks, but recently I have been scanning the drawing/sketch without color or shade settings. Some of my scanned renderings eventually have color, shading, and texture added using nothing more than Microsoft Paint and Microsoft Photo Editor. Soon I will be experimenting with Gimp. I haven't seriously pursued any proper design software because of the costs involved.
Being an automobile designer, even temporarily or maybe part-time from home would be almost a dream come true.
I am skilled in drawing (no surprise there) and music. Let's just say that I am better than average at both, so I can have the edge on surprising others. I love cars -drawing them, of course. And, with my real cars, I sometimes make vain attempts at repair and restoration.
If I might have caught your interest (even just a little), then feel free to check out my portfolio located at the following web address.
Select "Portfolios" and page down through the names until you find "Steven Ward (USA)". Also feel free to ignore the names of all the other designers...please!!! (Just joking...I think!)
Thank you for your kind attention.
