Lee Trevino and Fred Couples


These are 2 acrylic paintings which will be used to make puppets for a Bridgestone Golf Ball commercial. The Fred Couples (yellow shirt) has some photoshop in it for some corrections I had to do.
This is probably not how I would have caricatured him, but you have to compromise sometimes when working with 3 or 4 other people. The hands are bigger than usual per their request because they were going to use actual hands with smaller puppets.

Old Bruce drawing
Ok- one more...




Just wanted to give you a sneak peek in case you actually go to my flickr page (it's worth it- trust me). So here's just a few of my friend's walls- Fred, Kage, Jason, and Tomo Tabata. Check them out from my links. There are many more friends with great work, but I can't list them all here- sorry- just go to the flickr page.
Also a photo of me and my 2 roommates, Don and Josh who were really cool. That photo was snapped before I could smile... what are you going to do?
Last ISCA post



Ok- this will be it for the ISCA Convention.
This is a drawing of Teresa Farrington referencing the movie "Dune". She liked it and wasn't offended at all; she's really cool. It's colored pencil, and unfortunately, I didn't get a good photo. The flash made everything too bright, so this is shot without a flash but with the shutter open longer- thus the blurriness.
The third one is done by Marlo Meekins and I include it here only because it really blew me away. It's a brilliant idea (it really looked like the guy) and brilliantly executed as well. Her subsequent work during the week was equally as good or even better, so check it out on her blog: http://marlomeekins.blogspot.com/
One day I will have an actual conversation with her.
I took many more photos, with many other brilliant artists, and you can see them on my Flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/26569636@N00/4099054369/in/photostream/
Better views





Here's my friend, Mongol Mike- from sketch to acrylic painting. The sketch was done from life and then the painting was done from the sketch and a few photos.
The one of Alison was done from life and is mainly colored pencil with some pastel in the background.
The one of Dan is the same medium as Allison, and is referencing the "Ministry of Silly Walks" from Monty Python, obviously because he resembles John Cleese.
Mt. Lar





The first sketch was done while listening to Lar's lecture "Caricature 101". Then I did the sketch of him as a mountain, and then took a better photo to get some more detail.
The last one is included to show the texture which was done with a heavy gel medium. I had to let it dry about 20 hours before applying the acrylic. (This is actually the first photo).
More ISCA (International Society of Caricature Artists) Convention





So, I'll try to include sketches where I can- like this one of Don, which I did from life, and then did most of the pastel that way as well, but took a photo reference just in case.
Here's a better view of the one I did of Ed Lilywhite with the photo ref. I used. That one was col-erase pencil on pastel paper with water. I discovered the col-erase pencils are water-soluble and had a water-color effect.
