Sketch O’The Week

I’ve been so busy I didn’t have time to work up a real “Sketch O’The Week”, so here’s something a little different. This is a very rough sketch for a park sample of Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson from the new Harry Potter movie. I stole the gag from an SNL skit. I didn’t finish it because compositionally it’s too out of whack. The drawing is too left-side heavy. I tried to compensate with the window behind them, but that won’t do the job. It’ll need to be reworked if I want to finish it. I was also thinking about having sparks shooting… READ MORE

Happy 4th of July! A quick one of actor Jake Gyllenhaal. I struggled trying to draw him for the parody of “Brokeback Mountain”. It was a case where you see something that seems obvious but when you try and draw it, that something eludes you. I thought between the long, narrow face, the hairy eyebrows and the long, girl eyelashes that he’d be easy to draw, but I was not satisfied with many of the caricatures I did of him in the piece.

Chicks with automatic weapons for legs… does it get any more fun than that? Especially if the machine gun appendaged chick looks like Rose McGowan. Wednesdays is now “Sketch O’The Week” day! At least for this week it is… READ MORE

A little less ambitious than “Sketch O’The Day“. Here’s a quick study of Ed O’Neill from his “Married… with Children” days. I saw in the news that this is the 20th anniversary of the show. Back in “the day” I penciled 20 some issues of a comic based on the show for NOW Comics. I posted a while back about those days, but sometime in the future I’ll post some more stories. I drew the actors so many times I think I could pull off a decent caricature of any of them out of my head to this day. I could probably draw the living… READ MORE

Rapper Snoop Doggy Dogg, quick sketch and value study for a possible park sample. My old Snoop drawing needs replacing. Since I’m planning on doing a fair amount of live drawing this year, I’d like to come up with 12 new samples. Ordinarily I’d pick new subjects but Snoop is still relative and a better example of him is in order. READ MORE

Jessica Simpson squeeze and musician John Mayer. The picture I drew this from was about the size of a nickel. Just a very quick study. I know nobody has noticed, but all of last week thorough today I have been in Massachusetts getting my park near Springfield, Six Flags New England, up and running. I pre-posted most of this stuff. When I get back maybe I’ll have some pictures from the roadtrip. READ MORE

Leggy Rock Goddess Gwen Stephanie. I saw her in an outfit like this on a video when I was at the gym. READ MORE

A very quick sketch of Summer Glau, who plays a character called River Tam on the TV show “Firefly” and in the movie “Serenity”. She’s got an odd, buggy eyed look, and I tried to push that along with the pursed mouth a bit more than the likeness could handle, I think. I caught “Serenity” on HD-DVD this past weekend. Not a bad movie, although I felt a bit left out having never seen the TV show. Obviously the film was aimed at followers of the TV series and very little time was wasted on character development or explanation that might have helped out those… READ MORE
