Buff Man, Cream Paper

Long pose illustration featuring buff man with crossed arms.

Another of the “cream paper” set.  This one features my favorite model — alas, now far away in Hawaii — an amazingly build man, perfect for drawing.

I like the way I drew ankles in this period.  I should take it up again.

Digitized Photography and Portrait Discovery

August Sander is one of my favorite portrait photographers.  He’s brilliant at capturing both the humanity and ridiculousness of his subjects August Sander is one of my favorite portrait photographers.  He’s brilliant at capturing both the humanity and ridiculousness of his subjects – something I aspire to in my own character designs.

I thought I had seen most of his published work…but I was wrong!

I love that boxer’s outfit.
