Danny boy :-)

for a weekly caricature contest over at Facebook

Some sketches from these last few weeks..

Seems like when I draw from imagination, I tend to make the eyes always the same, need to do a whole lot more eye studies ..

 

quick charcoal sketch, no refs

 

charcoal on paper, some refs used for proportions' sake

rapid 10-15 min sketch from imagination for practice and fun

sanguine on paper, no refs

messed up the eyes - sanguine on toned paper

a messy sanguine + acrylics portrait. A photo of Maria Mena was used for ref at the beginning, but I totally lost the resemblance at some point..

I got a few more on their way, hope I can finish'em this weekend, I'll post some more sketches pretty soon
