Part of drawing is drawing bad and warming up... working out ideas and sketching. It's so important to sketch a lot and then slow down, and I tend to get caught up in speed, deadlines and drawing fast. These are some quick sketches that I did for a couple recent gigs. They are the first step of a finished piece and have so much life where a the finished product lacks, yet there are so many technical problems and general mistakes. I think it's good to show all sorts of work for critiques and review, so here are some quick sketches.
The celebs are very fairly weak in my eyes, and the dogs were very gestural. The Italian Greyhound shows the progress for the final product, and the colored borzoi was an experiment.
Wow, these are great! I love your linework, you make it look like it's so easy for you, - yet you have such an extreme likeness! They really are great great caricatures, I'd love to see them all finished up all of them.
... and here you are talking about "fairly weak in my eyes".. pssh! Shut up! :P
By the way, - the cover of your book is THE BEST. I wanna buy it.
Of course its a borzoi, everyone knows that. They were breed in the 1460s by the Germans to find trouser snakes. Now they just look funny, and hate being called Lassie.
nice work. holla. im trying to jump on the bandwagon more fullspeed this time... sleeps on! whooot whoot! yay for seeing you at the convention! :) Tell D Im sorry I missed her... gah!
This is very inspiring work you have created for us. Some people need to know that these things can ensue to anyone. You have shown me a better view now.

That's acually a borzoi - it's a really lanky and long 'lassie' - but different breed. ;)
Hey, Joe.
Great sketches. That first Jay Leno is hilarious.
I agree with Muffin, your Rejects cover is a classic.
