Number three in the collection is Billy Bibbit, played by Brad Dourif. I've used the green marker here, reflecting Billy's innocence. Likeness...
Other Subject Matter
Max Taber
Next up is Max Taber, played by Christopher Lloyd. Probably the scariest of all the patients in the film, like an unexploded bomb. It was a no...
Randle McMurphy
Another big collection of marker portraits on the way. This time it's eight patients from One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, one of the greatest...
13 September 1999
After yesterday's news that I won't be wildcarding it at LAOTY and the arrival of two new Artgraf colours, today was always going to be an Artgraf...
The Humber Bridge Under Three Different Skies
With one eye on my preferred Landscape Of The Year venue, today was a day to paint another bridge under three different skies. Unfortunately my...
Cammie III
Time to try something new. In that Burne Hogarth book I read about something called sculptural light. It's a light and shade scheme that ignores...
Doctor Zachary Smith
Sometimes I receive messages and I just have to act on them. I had the telly to myself last night and managed to find a 1960 episode of The...
Billy The Kid
I felt like doing a portrait today. I've been doing a lot of landscapes in an attempt to impress LAOTY judges (newsflash: I've not made it to a pod...
Queendown Warren In Three Complementary Colour Schemes
Not much time to paint again today but I do need to keep in practice. I decided to go for an experimental painting that wouldn't take much...
AnaIv In Artgraf
I only had the energy for a quick painting today, so went for an idea that's been kicking around for a few days. A line drawing using fineliners...
When I’m Paid I Always See The job Through
I can't do too many watercolours in a row without pining for a change of media so I was in the coloured pencils today, doing a portrait of Angel...
Damn You All To Hell!
Now this is a landscape that's been on my to do list for a while. It's the closing scene from the original Planet Of The Apes film back in...
Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin
There was a certain man in Russia long ago. He was big, he was strong, in his eyes a flaming glow. Most people looked at him with terror and with...
CasD
After needing to take two attempts at painting the Earp brothers, I felt like I'd wasted a day of my life, so after finishing the corrected...
The Earps
After discovering Friday's disaster I wanted to come up with a proper painting of The Earps as quickly as possible. This was finished ar about...
Three Famous Gunslingers
<Edit: The day after I painted and posted this one I found that I'd screwed up. The guy on the right is Frank James, not Virgil Earp. That...
BethR
A few things to do today so I thought I'd have the day off and read a book but the kindle battery died on me during the afternoon so I thought I'd...
Applying To Landscape Artist Of The Year
I won't be completing my three landscapes in three days challenge. One of the painful lessons I've learned over the years is that if I'm not...
Alan Shearer
Lots of stuff going on at the moment so I thought I'd be better off just going for a quick inktense pencil painting today and give the sepia...
Ally MacLeod
A grim day today with a power cut in the morning and then no WiFi when the power came back on so I'm grabbing a sneaky coffee in Costa while I...
