Sketch o’the Week- The Boss and Billy!
December 19th, 2018 | Posted in Sketch O'The Week
This isn’t really a SotW, but one of the special “Christmas Commissions” I did early this month. Most of those pieces were caricatures of those who bought them or their friends/family, so posting those is kind of pointless since most readers won’t know what the subjects look like. However a few people asked me to do celebrities. This one is of Bruce “The Boss” Springsteen and Billy Joel, and was one of my favorites I did. If you are curious it was done on Strathmore 300 smooth bristol using brush pens and Copic markers, with a touch of colored pencil and white paint.

My god this is fantastic Tom. Damn.
Went to the Billy Joel concert at Madison Square Garden this past summer, and it was his 100th concert there. Bruce Springsteen came out on stage about midway and did a couple of songs with him. Amazing experience, and this is a great caricature of both of them!
Love It !!! I’m a Fan of Billy !! Great work !!
Beautiful!!
Sweet Christmas!!!
Always excellent works – cheers
