The Pickers and a Dog




Had some fun drawing up the dudes from American Pickers this weekend -super hard getting decent reference on these 2 though! Somewhat satisfied with the results.... Dog was a blast. The best thing about the dog is he is the most accessorized guy on reality TV. I mean what is all that stuff he wears??? Looks like a mix of army surplus police gear and an old west Indian trading post.Few people can pull the look off- dog being one of them!

Guilty Indulgence



Well I freely admit that I am a fan of American Pickers, I have only watched Pawn Stars off and on. It's during those "on" times I began to appreciate what really great characters each of these Pawn guys are. The old man with his hound dog jowls and half closed eyes, Rick with the cynical laugh and the tat twins Corey and Chumlee. So with a little free time I had this afternoon, I busted out the sketchbook and gave 2 of them a whirl.

Ray Caesar goodness


Some good advice from the 2 parts bizzare and 1 part awesome, Ray Caesar:

any advice for the art school grad?
"Take all the compliments and criticisms and put it in a bag with a screaming cat...go to a river...take the cat out and cuddle it and throw the bag in the river. Start work...work...finish work! If you are afraid to do something artistically that's a good enough reason to try it. Make what you love as that's the best way to know if someone else will love it. Forget what it "means"...it's about how it "feels" Don't do art as a career... do it in your spare time and make sure all your time is spare time...make sure you get enough fiber.
