Cody, the Artist

[gbird15]

Cody has been drawing insects and animals for a number of years. He recently started drawing custom pet portraits and is now working on birds of prey.

Here is some of his past work. The scans do not do them full justice-

This drawing is of the famous Iwo Jima memorial.


This next drawing was ordered by the local vet and now hangs in his office. Its a drawing of his poodle.

Hey Cody! The Iwo Jima drawing looks great!

[gbird15]

Okay guys, check out my sponsors Christmas gift. Cody just finished this piece on Sunday, Dec. 21st. It's a drawing of my sponsor's current redtail "Angel". Cody gave me the original and a copy. Size is 11 by 14.

I haven't given it to my sponsor yet, so if you know him, DO NOT TELL HIM ABOUT IT! Okay? Okay.

Here is the picture Cody drew it from. It is kinda memorable because I took this picture of Angel the very first time I met sponsor. He came out to my house and we went hawking. Didn't catch anything, but I got this shot.


Here is a scan of the copy he gave me. My scanner couldn't cover the entire drawing, but this is most of it.


And finally, here is a picture of the original framed.


I think this was the first hawk that Cody drew...

holly crap that's cool! How long did it take and how much would he charge to do something similar?

[gbird15]

Thanks guys. I'm glad you all like it! He put 25hrs into this drawing over the course of three weeks.

I just got off the phone with Cody. Here is some more info on his drawings:

- Typically, his art will be finished between 1-2 months.

- Approximate prices for similiar custom drawings are:
- $150* for an 8 by 10
- $250* for an 11 by 14
*Please not that ALL drawings are different and each require individual, unique detail. Pricing may be more or less, depending on original picture. Other drawing sizes may be considered.

And now more on Cody.

Cody has been actively drawing since he was 6. When he was younger, he attended some art classes, but is basically considered self taught. He opened his custom pet portraits business 2 years ago. Now 17, Cody continues using his God given talent to draw most anything he finds.

This image and work is so beautiful that I´ll tattoo it on my right arm. It´s ok for you?

[gbird15]

SWEET! I'll let him know.

[Wolf]

He really is gifted. The Glove and most of the poodle actually seem as if they're in 3D.

I'm very impressed.

IT´s not finished yet because the tattoo artist will put the whites and greys in 10 days. Hope you all enjoy
