Back while I was in college, caricature artist Sam Viviano was one of my instructors. Believe it or not, I attended the same class as a couple of published caricature artists Andre Leroy Davis (andreleroydavis.com) and Kevin Greene (http://a.co/4sN8d6Q. I was lucky to have him, not only because he was really good but because I enjoyed his work in Dynamite magazine during the late seventies. Anyway, one day he drew for the class a picture of actress Helen Slater in her role as Supergirl in the movie of the same name. I guess I was sitting at the front of the class that day and he just handed me the drawing to keep. To this day I still don't know why. All I know is I still have it. This will probably be the only piece of art on this site that wasn't created by me. We'll see.
Working on a new piece
So. now I'm trying to figure what tricks I can use to make this render appear as realistic as possible. I spent the last few days playing with the lighting and readjusting the hands. It may still be a lighting issue. Not sure...
Getting closer, but not quite there...
In case anyone out there is keeping score, I'm still working on improving this last piece. Not done, yet.
Still tinkering...
New Piece
It's been a few months since I've posted, so I might as well get started.
This is a piece I started over a month ago entitled Queen Huntress. It's almost completed, but I want to show its progression over these few weeks.
