In his own style



Graphite on 5.5 x 8.5 paper. I was trying to capture the style of Dave Malan in this drawing--a fresh, clean, and crisp hatching with a clear articulation of lighting. This might look just okay, but Malan's is far superior than this.

Danny Trejo



Graphite on 5.5 x 8.5 ins. paper. Dominic Philibert is such an inspiring artist that he never cease to amaze me with his works. This one I copied from his website, a rough but a remarkable sketch that he did, that I decided to copy it and did a little modifiaction by rendering more on the facial expression. As the old clihe goes: the greatest compliment one can give is by emulation. Thanks BIG D!
