So I’ve decided to get back to posting the doodles and sketches I do when I’m barely thinking about it, because I kind of like them. I hesitate to committing to posting one every day because I know sometimes I just won’t get around to it for whatever reason. Anyway, he’s this one:
I did this digital painting as a gift for a friend of mine. He likes both Tara Reid and Julia Stiles, but I only had time to paint one of them, so I compromised. I am not necessarily a fan of either woman, although Julia Stiles and I do share a birthday. It was a fun little exercise in portraiture, color and brushwork. I feel the facial likeness could be better (I didn’t paint straight from any single photo, trying to combine elements of a bunch), but I’m pretty happy with how Reid’s body came out.
Here is the X-mas card my wife made me this year. It features our new kittens attacking their namesakes from Futurama. Vanessa is much better at art than I am at science.
