Caricature Painting

A painting for a friend. My goals are to create works that have movement and great composition. This project is in the right direction in the development of my goals, I think. All in all, this turned out well. On to the next project...

Hulk

A drawing of the Hulk. The Avengers movie  presented him very well, I thought. His rage and shear power was very convincing. My admiration of him has increased.

Here's the link to learn more about him.

Cricket County


Below is a play cover by Eddie McPherson. The synopsis of the play goes something like this:
Oswald Tippenhimmer and his city family take their country cousins from Cricket County to the Colorado Mountains for Christmas this year.  This trip, however, isn’t exactly offered from the kindness of their hearts – but is an attempt to get on Grandma Taylor’s good side so she will include them in her will since she and her Cricket County family inherited late Uncle Zeke’s millions.
Once they arrive at the ski lodge, they find the owners are trying to get their aging grandfather back to the retirement home so they can better attend to their failing business. 
However, Gramps, as they call him, would rather stay and spend Christmas with the only family he has left.Oswald gets an idea:  If he can get Gramps to court lonely Grandma Taylor,  she will surely be grateful enough to leave the city bunch some of her inheritance money.
It’s a lesson in appreciating our elderly.   We should love everyone in our world – even those who can’t do anything for us in return.
