Commission.


Done for a birthday gift.

it's fun to do something different once in a while, and i never really draw any animals, so it was good practice.

Gaga



quick caricature of 'Lady Gaga' done for this month's contest over at e-caricatures.

I just don't get why this chick is popular, she's a kook. I think they said it best over at wwtdd.com

" When Charlize Theron guest-starred on 'Arrested Development' for 5 episodes, her character had this real quirky fashion style that everyone overlooked because she was all free-spirited. But then it turns out she wasn’t quirky and free-spirited, just mildly retarded.

What do we really know about Lady GaGa? She’s not retarded is she? That would explain a lot. Is there some test we can give her? Maybe follow her into an elevator with two puppets, a cow and a duck. Then when you’re alone, put them on and sing, t'he duck says mooo and the cow says quack.' And then just wait. "

I say she's just retarded.

The Notorious Harrison Ford

Out of countless caricature i've seen of him, only a few truly hit their mark, for me personally. Ford has one of those faces that are Notoriously hard to capture in caricature, but when you see a good one it's kind of like "oh yeah, duh" and it seems so simple.

here's one from today that i did for my birthday series ( him as han solo), and another i did last year that remains my favorite of my many attempts.

Miranda Kerr WIP





A WIP for the latest caricature jam over at drawingboard.org. the subject this month is Miranda Kerr, Victoria's secret model. I've posted a caricature of her before, see it HERE, but wasn't too happy with it.

For this one, i did a quick pencil sketch to achieve a proper likeness, and now am just concentrating on the lighting and colors.

will post the final when i finish it.

Happy birthday Liv Tyler
