regarding portraits
i did not draw the drawings below. the guest artist on this post is chris chappell.
no life drawings this week from me because i ended up being the model tonight at AFG. it was pretty neat to see yourself drawn / painted by other people. especially since we have such kickass artists in our group.
i told some stories while i was “on stage.” it’s weird because it was almost hard for me not to. i’d just think of these dumb things while it was all quiet and then i’d start smirking and then just have to twist my arm why don’t you go into my standup routine. not really though, i was just chattin it up speakin ma mind. but it made me realize our models don’t really change facial expressions and it hadn’t occured to me that could be a challenge. that had NOT occurred to us dude.
a reason i feel some need to post this nonsense is that i thought of that great scene in i heart huckabees, when they replay the tape of shaina twain story for hey jude. i heart that scene.
Hey, thanks for stopping by my site. I’d totally stop by the AFG to paint if it were any night other than Monday. I really enjoyed the last show you had. Lots of good painters in your group.
