Bond, James Bond

I've been a James Bond fan since I was a kid. As far as recent movies go, I loved Casino Royale and absolutely hated Quantum of Solace. Even still, I think Daniel Craig is a pretty darn good Bond. Here's my latest painting of him.

My First Interview

There's an interview and feature about yours truly in the latest issue of New Sugar Magazine. Check it out: http://is.gd/4UgzB

Audrey Hepburn

Here's my latest: the legendary Audrey Hepburn. I have a lot of books of old movie stills. Periodically, I like to crack one open and draw something out of it. This took about four hours in Photoshop.

Evangeline Lilly Revised

I took some welcome advice from a number of fellow caricature artists I respect and made some adjustments to Kate here. I reduced her cup size and overlarge forearm. I brought down her hairline and raised her chin. Then I totally repainted her mouth. I think this helps the likeness (I hope).

Evangeline Lilly Reference

Someone asked me to show the reference photo I used for my Evangeline Lilly painting. Several artists I respect made some very astute observations regarding my painting. I think I'll go in and tweak it a bit.

Evangeline Lilly

My favorite TV show currently on the air is Lost. A while ago I began sketching all the main cast members with the intention of painting them all. Then one thing led to another and I never got around to doing the actual paintings. I finally gave myself the kick in the pants I needed and finished my painting of the lovely Evangeline Lilly. I have to say, I'm really glad I did.

Javier Bardem

Digital painting of one of my favorite movie villains of recent years, Javier Bardem as Chigurh from No Country for Old Men. About three and a half hours in Photoshop.

Mayor Dave Bing

Here's a digital painting of the newly elected mayor of Detroit, Dave Bing. About four hours in Photoshop. Note to non-locals: he used to be a Detroit Piston a long time ago.
