Caricature Resolution 2018, Day 10 is: DAVID BOWIE Sometimes, I like the rough I did better than the final product. This shows the rough to ink to color process and you can see how it ch-ch-ch-changes….

Day 9 of Caricature Resolution 2018 calls for: JAMES BROWN Just mixing styles up to keep it interesting for me and any others since, unlike other subjects, where there were too many versions to choose from, most of the reference photos I found for my distant cousin, Mr. Brown, were […]
Day 8 of Caricature Resolution calls for a caricature of: LEONARD NIMOY As discussed previously, just drawing the easily-recognized famous role of an actor, rather than just relying on the resemblance to the actor themselves may be taking the easy way out, but I really had to draw Nimoy as […]
Day 7 of Caricature Resolution calls for: CARRIE FISHER A lot of these celebrity subjects in the list suggest a certain iconic role they are best known for, visually, anyway. Yesterday’s Heath Ledge and the Joker, for instance. I stayed away from the impetus to do that visually striking character both […]
Day 6 of Caricature Resolution is here and the subject is: HEATH LEDGER Sure, I love the Joker in The Dark Knight, but that character has been drawn so many times, that it seems boring and redundant to do it again here. So, ow about a real groaner of a pun […]

Out today is a new issue of the Asheville, NC alt-weekly paper, The Mountain Xpress. If you pick one up, you can have an original newsprint-quality print of the artwork I did for the cover. Inside is also an illustration for the local version parody of Dicken’s “A Christmas Carol” with […]
Day 3 of Caricature Resolution 2018 calls for: MICHAEL JACKSON …but with so many versions between Jackson-5-Michael and Daytime-Vampire-Defendant-Michael, I picked two and merged them with DC’s #CaptainMarvel and #BillyBatson changing the magic word from the Wizard’s acronym of #Shazam and making it instead the signature cry of Michael from many songs and […]
Caricature Resolution 2018, Day 2 is: KURT COBAIN I tried for a a more graphic style at first, but somehow the face got more and more detailed with realism while the hair, shirt and guitar stayed in the simplified graphical style. Maybe this will work as a new style combo? […]
