Tommy Cooper
I’ve not had the markers out for a while and it’s raining outside, so I’m having a go at a couple of portraits today. I’m not convinced by my last couple of Avengers portraits, so I’m going for someone different. This is the late Tommy Cooper.
I picked out a shadowy photo well suited to chiascuro. The likeness wasn’t there (maybe if I’d given him a fez, it would have been more obvious) so I threw in some impressionistic reds, pinks, oranges and yellows just for a bit of practice and experimentation.
He’s not great. It might only be the left eye that’s letting him down though. He’s not going up for sale.
