Indeed, one’s true hobbies and interests are likely to provide the inspiration and motivation to create one’s best artwork. And so it goes for another of Chicago-based Project Onward’s artists, David Jarmon…
…Jarmon, 23, was working quietly and passionately Thursday on his newest piece. He sketched away on a creature named ‘Wolfman,’ drawing from memory a shaggy, furry face with long fangs. Jarmon uses his love for monsters and mortal combat as inspiration, but admits he enjoys sketching portraits of people in his free time.Jarmon has a form of autism, and like most artists at Project Onward, he uses art as a form of expression. He enjoys using pencils and colored pencils to create his pieces. He said he watches TV shows such as ‘Friends,’ ‘My Name is Earl’ and popular wrestling matches during his free time.
