Study for Rip. . .



This is the philosopher Herbert Spencer. He has the most amazing chops, skullett, and neck-beard. After seeing his daguerreotype, I realized that he is the perfect model for my upcoming Rip Van Winkle illustration.

. . . So it goes: Kurt Vonnegut Jr.


I have been reading a lot of Kurt Vonnegut recently. I thought it would be fun to do a quick sketch of him.

"Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion.
 I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do." 
~Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
