Shane MacGowan

Shane in his pomp! Started yesterday and spent most of it getting it all down. Worked a couple of hours this evening finishing it off.

Bernie Ecclestone

Sticking with motor racing...

Jean Todt

New FIA president; Monsieur Todt.

New old stuff!

How - do! Just to say that the digi page on the web site has been updated with some recent works from the last couple o' months. If you're a regular here then you've probably clocked 'em before - if you're not then check 'em out here.

Fabregas

Of Mouse And Men...

Had to take a break from all that mouse action and pick up the pencil to try and capture this great author in his younger years. A sketch is as good as a rest.

Ian Brown - B&W Rough Comp1

First composite - gonna chew it over...

Ian Brown - Stage 2

Think I'm going with the low rider idea, soooooooooo - here's Mr Brown's bonce which will be later worked into the bike pose.

Ian Brown - Stage 1

Initial outline for a new Illo' of the King Monkey (doing his best Max Bygraves impression!) Ideas for the composition keep changing by the minute. Was originally thinking of an Andy Warhol-style diptych as I've got a cool image of him with a tambourine and mic which would go well alongside. Then I thought about having a side-on of him on his low-rider cutting across the middle section of the image above. Hmmm; gonna go sleep on it now. One thing's for sure; it'll look waaaay different by the time it's finally inked. Time for Zeds!

Hu Jintao

The President of the People's Republic of China

Edvard Grieg

Poe in 40!

Good practice to try and keep the pressure on. Kept slowing up to get locked in detail when I lost concentration. Quicker - Harder - More!

Klimt - in 20!

Havin' fun doin' these sprint sketches. Here's Ol' Gus, one of my favourite artists; though it's not for his women - it's the landscapes!

A Tale Of Two Media

Another speedy scribble, this time of Chaz Dickens, to break up a monster illo' job I'm in the middle of. Pencil beats mouse - this time!

Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall

A quick-'un of HFW as time is tight. Can you stand any more hob-jockeys?!

Leonard Cohen

Marco Pierre White

Another culinary crosspatch.

Keith Floyd

Celeb' chef and soused sourpuss Mr Keith Floyd who raised his final glass of red to the world yesterday.

Biggie Smalls

Notorious B.I.G.

Pukka!

Jamie Oliver

Boris Yeltsin

It's 'Ta-Ta' to El-Tel on Two (for now)

Terry Wogan

Rock Hudson

Jessica 6 - Yeah!

Perennially pulchritudinous; it's Jenny Agutter!

Iggy Pop

Iggy Pop - or James Newell Osterberg to his mum.
