I've Posted on Sketchclub again...

This poor kid was working hard as a house painter, but who could resist such an opportunity to draw him? He was covered in white paint!

  2. I really like the tactile feel of this. so much stuff is digital now, or digital dressed up as real media, that it's nice to see styled stuff in traditional media. That aside, it's a great image in and of itself. who can help getting covered in paint?

  12. Thanks Ted, Justin, C.Deboda, Tukan, Craig,

    Erika, I agree. For me there's something instinctual about tangible media.

    Trevor, Charles, that's what I've been focusing on. Less on caricature, and more on the simplicity of the shapes.

    Shuku, yes, it's part of my rehabilitation!

    Abhishek, I'm glad I woke you up. Your work is so amazing, if I'm waking you up, you're super-charging me with 210 volts of electricity!

    Marcos, yes, it's water color on a manilla folder I cut up.
