Mostly sketches. Occasionally a painting. Nothing political other than caricatures reinforcing the truism "Politics is Show Business for Ugly People".

Gorgon Teaser
I thought I'd do a line overlay, but I think I'll just leave it more "painterly"...or marker-ly, in this case. Background needs work...and that arm is really wonky. Oops!
Very interesting. I like the painterly decision. Something weird is going on. For me at least. When I click and get the large version, I get a very saturated version. When I save it and look at with preview, it loses all the saturation. But I drag the same jpg into firefox browser, it's saturated. Must be that color profile photoshop is always making a noise about. Really like the way the painting is shaping up. Good tease technique.
The less saturated looks like it's probably the "right" one. The saturated has detail loss like contrast has been used instead of a balanced levels approach.

Thanks, El! I got the same thing happening when I clicked on it to embiggen. Crazy! I'm going with the non-insane version.
Don't know why that's happening, but now I'm terrified it'll reproduce that way, should it get into the book.
