Just back from seeing The Social Network. One of my all time favourite movies about a college guy establishing a social networking website!
Though it be not a comedy, 'tis comedic nonetheless. Mark Zuckerberg's total disdain for - well, pretty much everyone - makes for some very amusing dialogue.
Anyway, I though I'd do a quick sketch of Jesse Eisenberg, who plays the lead role. It's a bit of a work in progress, but I'm really not good with progress so this might be as far as it goes.
Seems almost as though every time I turn on the telly these days there's a new channel playing episodes of some-one-thing-or-if-not-perhaps-another.
And what better to rerun than Friends?
In honour of which - here's tonights painting ...
My second attempt with the new graphics tablet ... Mikey Robbins.
This was a real bugger for me. I chose Mikey because I thought he'd be easy to caricature - but I had real trouble getting a likeness. I'm reasonably happy withe end result - but gee willakers I redrew it a lot.
I received a graphics tablet from my parents on Saturday - a belated birthday present.
I thought I'd give it a go last night and came up with this caricature of that bard of badinage - Stephen Fry.
I'm happy enough with it as a first attempt at using a tablet.
