Mike K


Graphite on 9x12" on Strathmore paper. Known as "Big Dawg Daddy", "Pitbull", or to some, "Bully". I made him look meaner and intimidating with thicker eyebrows and mustache of the defunct Sadam Hussein; somebody who you don't want to be in your way, or get his attention and be his subject of ridicule. Run before he gits ya!

  2. yeah, man. As the artist Richard Schmid said, "paint (or draw) like pig eats!" Keep grinding through to wherever it takes you.
