Jack Nicholson in Sketchbook Pro & Photoshop

He's 'just your average horny little devil', apparently...

Ben Stiller

That took a bit longer than normal - good fun though: brilliant face!

Donald Sutherland, in his pomp. Etched in Sketchbook Pro.

Here's a fairly quick re-working of an old pencil sketch of Hollywood fav' Mr Jack Lemmon. I wanted to do a b&w painting just to concentrate on form and shade. There wasn't a lot of detail in the reference photo so I had to fill in the blanks. It's very rare I do a side-on portrait and, like anything, it's tricky if you're not used to it - you have to go about things in a slightly different way... good fun.

Brand new colour study of a silver screen actor coming soon...ish.

David Lynch

I've sketched the great film maker and painter a few times but I'm gonna try to make time at some point to create a great full-colour, full weird-out portrait - as befitting his unique work. His hair deserves a separate painting all for itself...

Sean Penn...

...or is it some hideous amalgam of Robert De Niro and Hugh Grant?
Digital airbrush/paint isn't my usual (virtual) medium of choice but since I near bankrupted myself with the cintiq purchase back at the start of the year, curiosity go the better of me and I thought it would be good to experiment. I'd also had a couple of commissions asking to use this process so I thought I'd better get busy with it. Can't say it'll become my favourite process for caricaturing but I know I shall be givin' it another go before too long.
