HAY GUSY!
I was so inspired by Alamo's guide to playing the druid class in World of Warcraft, that I decided to make a painting to memorialize his hysterical post, especially after he returned to teach us all about Burnin Croosaid.

Here's a color study I made after a few initial sketches.

Here's a more detailed drawing that I transfered to the canvas with a projector.

Out of Place

While at the beach last summer I saw a man on TV with an unforgettable face. I paused the show for a few moments to sketch him. I tried to paint him at the beach, but it didn't work. It wasn't until I revisited the sketch on a 16x20 canvas that he started to come back. Here's an early look at the painting.

And here's a little more progress. The face is coming along, but I'm not sure what I'm doing with the shirt.

And here's the final version. For the text, I used Clarendon as a reference, because it matched the TV show. There's some glare on the canvas though from the lights. I need to fix that. The small version kind of clips out the darks.
