Daily Paint: YEAAAAHHHHH!!!!!

Quick drawing, value study and quick paint.

Eh, it's a start...

Tracy Jordan Warm-Up

In preparation for the APE caricature line-up, I did a 20min portrait sketch from a photo.

Pepper and Pop

Celebrity Caricatures. Barry Pepper of True Grit fame and Iggy Pop of occasional Star Trek cameo fame.

Miles and Miles

Aargh! So long in the making. I mean, literally, MONTHS! of drawing this guys face over and over again. Miles and Miles. But I'm happy to call this one finished. Happy Birthday Andy G!

Respect the Stash!

Lunchtime Sketch and Coffee Shop Sketches

English Bulldogs/Pastel Experiment

First experiment with pastels and some dog portraits. Damn, I can't believe how these dogs can be so ugly and so darn cute at the same time!

The Barack O-Bomb!

Obama's likeness was much more difficult to capture than Arnold's. He's got a lot going on in the shapes of his mouth that are so important to his likeness. The ears are an obvious choice but everyone does that. This was an hour's worth of drawing and week's worth of research.

Our soon to be Ex-Governor

Arnie really is a handsome dude. The first two are the practice drawings where I couldn't quite get the likeness. The last image is a 20 minute sketch done after 2hrs of trying to get it right.

Figure Drawing from Palo Alto

Some more figure drawings as of late.

Caricaturez!

Some funny people at the local bookstore and coffee shop
