Blind Melon - Shannon Hoon

This is a drawing of Shannon Hoon who was the frontman for the band Blind Melon. When I'm not feeling particularly creative, I sometimes draw from photos or video files. I don't worry to much about being exact since photos aren't perfect themselves. I try to fix awkward elements in the photo. I usually focus on photos of young men which limits what I learn. I'm really just exploiting a loophole in my ADD. I think it is something to the extent of - nothing can hold my attention unless, of course, it's sexy.

A few sketches of musicians. They aren't exactly "current". I invite any guesses on who exactly they are.

Lara, Unfinished

I have been sorting through a box of old drawings and found this. It is Lara Croft, with her arm around what was to be a stone statue. I actually think I made her TOO cheasty.

A caricature, of sorts.

I drew and colored this with col-erase pencils and marker. This is a woman whose "shawl" is no an animal pelt, but a giant, hairy monster-bug. I did this for a monster drawing class. Actually, this is just the sketch of the final project, which was in the form of a before-after type thing. I'll put up the final version in a bit.
