Steve Jobs

Had fun drawing Steve Jobs tonight.  Odds are you are probably viewing his picture on a device he is responsible for.

Neil Armstrong

One of my heroes growing up, Neil Armstrong was my subject this time. I often wondered what it must have been like just knowing that of all humans who have ever lived on this earth to be the first human to step onto another round ball in the sky that countless millions of people have stared up at in wonder. First of only a dozen humans ever to experience that. I hated to see his passing so I thought I'd honor him in picture. This was one of the harder ones I've done because of the nature of the suit. His expression can be seen as pure fear or just utter amazement. I like to think amazement.

Dog portrait

Did a dog portrait for someone that won a raffle.  Had fun doing this,  the dog has such a calm look on his face.

Daniel Craig

Love the Bond movies and what Daniel has brought to the character.  Enjoyed this quick study of him.

Paul Newman

Enjoyed Paul's work in film and racing.

President Reagan in profile

Love doing the profile type portraits, less to keep up with!   This was a very dark reference so I had to push around the values and contrast.

George Bailey

Favorite character of mine!

President Franklin D Roosevelt

Took on FDR today!

President Eisenhower

I did not know that he was the president that started NASA and DARPA.  I had always thought Kennedy.

President Roosevelt (Teddy)

Love drawing these presidents,  this one before my time, but cool mustache.

President George W Bush

Chose a picture that reflected the stress and hard times of his time as president.
