Glenfiddich Live Caricatures

Live Caricature at the Quiet Man Bar

Some more Live Caricatures drawn at this great Irish Pub "The Quiet Man" in Flemmington Melbourne. I had the luxury of spending more time on these drawings, most were done in around 6-10 min.

Live Caricature

I know I know....I've been slack with this blog thingy

Over the past few month's you could say I've been chasing my tail with deadlines (you all know what i mean ) ..personal stuff and Illustration work (that I can't share at this time)

Anyway , In September I was invited by some Sydney Artists to draw Live Caricatures at the Melbourne Show. Having never drawn Caricatures in a retail enviroment I thought I might as well give it a go for a few days at least to see if it's something I might consider doing again

Well, I did have a fun time and it was great drawing along side other Artists for a change as it's something I rarely get the opportunity to do. In the mornings for warm up myself and another Caricaturist Josh Spencer would draw each other, some more extreme than others. Here are some photo's I did manage to take with my phone

James "The Riff Master" Hetfield WIP

Over the past several months i've been in a creative & motivational black hole and to try and turn things around I'm making an extra effort to sketch more, paint more, network more and what's helping is by throwing things up here for fellow bloggers to see, i'm starting to feel good about producing art again.

Anyway...I'll be using this sketch of Metallica frontman James Hetfield as the basis for another PS Painting. Over the next week or so I'll update the progress

Rat Bug

This nasty looking Beetle is something I've been tooling around on-off for the past few months. The distorted perspective was the my main focus for this and like the Bus before I had to make it a Ratter
