I can’t imagine why… Or can I?

Edit: Revised poor Hulkster for better likeness and overall betterness.

This blog needs an update. Here’s one. It’s a caricature of yet another Stylus member, Emma.

I bought some more markers, colored ones this time around. They sure are lots of fun and handy to use.

Here’s a couple of fairly quick caricatures done with them. The first one is of the "Finnish Hasselhoff", Frederik, who’s already a sort of a caricature the way he really is. The original reference was a thumbnail sized photo in a newspaper, but the photo displayed here is a better version borrowed from his website. The man is like 63 (or something) and has a sweatband and a pierced eyebrow (edit: must not forget the mullet!) . Macho, so macho. Phew!

And the second one is of course the President of Finland, Tarja Halonen. Took less than an hour on this one. Frederik took maybe two.

A caricature of Charles Bukowski’s best known character - or at least the only one that I remember by name.

Or maybe it’s the author himself?

For U16’s Literary Illuminations activity.

Here are a few quick caricatures I’ve done of fellow Stylus members over the past few months. Not really funny ones, but at least couple of them have decent likenesses. But they were fun to do.

Here are the reference images…

…And the caricatures themselves.

 

Check their sites too. In order of appearance. Kiel’s, Jim’s, John’s and Dave’s.

Well, not entirely filthy. Just a regular “Happy Valentine’s Day!” for the most of you. Sincerely. Really.

And if you see yourself as worthy, treat yourself to the filthy valentine too.

This Valentines day card was done for the Stylus Art Collective’s “Filthy Valentines” challenge. You can find a printable PDF and emailable version of the card at Stylus blog along with the rest of the dirty, dirty Valentine’s day cards. Some of them are probably not safe for work…

… but shouldn’t you working instead of surfing anyways.
