Original caption

Seventeen years of drawing, one swipe at a time. ✏️ Anthony Miller shares his artistic progress from age 2 to 19, tracing the journey from childhood drawings to detailed portraits and paintings. The artist from Madison, Wisconsin, now creates work featuring musicians, athletes and religious figures. For his On Tour collection, pictured on the cover, he photographed musicians at their concerts and used his own images as references. The series took a year and a half and more than 400 hours of drawing and painting to complete. Seeing the early work alongside the finished pieces makes that progress especially rewarding to follow.
