SIR ALAN SUGAR

I'm not normally a huge fan of reality television but I decided, after hearing so much about previous series, to bite the bullet and check out the new series of 'The Apprentice' which features this guy. I'm afraid to say that I'm already hooked.
Nicholas was the first contestant to be fired from the first episode. Why? Well, you can see for yourself here

SOPHIE DAHL

Here's a quick pencil sketch of the in no way unattractive model Sophie Dahl.

Matrix sketch

Some stuff from Sea World

Still drawing, trying to have fun. I can see that my stuff is becoming less exaggerated, less crazy than it used to be for in-park standards. I dont necessarily have a problem with it, I can just tell that its becoming more packaged. At this present time of year I'm focusing on keeping a nice clean sketch as fast as possible and not pushing myself to jack people up. As the years have passed, I've been very into pushing the exaggeration, and its kind of "been there done that". I dont feel like I'm in any type of plateau that is keeping me from doing that, just doing it less in the park.
This is the first time I've worked in a year round park and I'm discovering what its like to fight to make commission. But summer will be here soon enough and I can have all the fun I want.

St. Patty's Day!

For St. Patrick's Day, a few of us at work were drawing little Leprachauns in people's sketches. Here are the ones I did.

MOZZA II

Here's a newer version of Morrissey.
'We're not there yet but we're getting there...........'

MOZZA

This was started last night after a few bottles of heineken while I was feeling ever so slightly ambitious. Came down to it this morning at thought: 'when did I do THIS???'
I suppose it's only right that I see this one through as I'm a big fan of his and The Smiths. I was trying to portray him as the ever so slightly ageing performer that he is. It's strange looking back at pictures of how he used to look during his time with The Smiths, sporting his massive quiff and bunches of daffodils sticking out of his back pocket and comparing them to how he is now. Anyway, I'll be posting updates over the next week or so.......

LE FIN

Well, here's the final version. I
It was personally handed to the man himself last night after his amazing show and he was rather chuffed if I do say so myself!!

DERREN BROWN UPDATE

Been plugging away at this one for a couple of days now and have made a few subtle changes.
Hoping to finish it over the next few days.

DERREN BROWN

I'm a big fan of this guy, and I'm really looking forward to seeing him perform live too in a couple of weeks!
He's not a bad artist either. In fact, he's a damn fine artist! Check out his website if you get a chance.
