I'm Ashe Skyler, a martial / artist born and raised in the Appalachian foothills. I work in a variety of dry mediums: pencil, coloured pencil, and charcoal. Sometimes I will dabble in digital work. I do not yet work with wet media, such as paint, watercolor, acrylics, or oils. There is very little I will not draw, so hit me up! I also formally study karate and jiu jitsu, and informally in several other things, so don't hit too hard. ;)
If I have done a commission for you, you are welcome to display it in your gallery.
Artistically, my favorite medium is black and white graphite work, and I enjoy creating both stylized work and fine art. My favourite mechanical pencils to work with are the Pentel GraphGear 500 series and I adore the transparent, gridded drafting rulers. I began offering commissions in 2010 for realistic fine art portraits of people, pets, homes, and buildings, and some stylized work of original characters.
As a writer, I have been writing and illustrating stories most of my life. One of my longest running projects is Just Another Day, a story about a curious explorer and aspiring warrior.
Professionally, I am a Chartered Tax Professional studying to become an IRS Enrolled Agent, and I am a notary public. I began working at my grandparents' tax office in 2006, started preparing tax returns in 2010, and became a small business owner when they retired in 2017. I became a notary public in 2021 when the last of the original crew retired.
