Levin

Charcoal on paper.  The Great Mark Levin is the most celebrated conservative radio talk show host.  I believe I have made a great deal of trying to draw him to my satisfaction, and so far I'm happy with this.  I'd settle with this for now.

Chaplin

Charcoal on paper.  Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin as his real name.  This was my entry in Caricature 3000, a contest for caricaturists featured in Facebook. No, it didn't win. It was no biggy, anyway.

James Earl Jones

The Great James Earl Jones. Charcoal in paper. Shown above are the progressive steps to the final artwork.

Antonio Banderas

A quick study and a charcoal on paper. After being away for a little while from blogging (not away from drawing, please), and was able to view some of the blogs from my fav artists, it made me realize that my blogs needs some "spice" in my artworks.  Some kicking, shaking the box, reinventing out of the box, turning it up to a notch, or call it your way, whatever.  Bottom line, I need some changes.

Paul Ryan

Charcoal on paper.  He's the VP nominee for Republican ticket on the 2012 US Presidential Race this November.  A Tea Party favorite. With his nomination it energized the conservatives around the country as they see him as a smarter pick by presidential nominee Mitt Romney.  As an economic expert and math wiz, he is more able to articulate more than anybody else on how to fix and reverse the tanking economy.  For the record, he was the one who came up with the Republican version of reforming healthcare (ignored by Obama) and the fiscal budget which was voted by the House of Representatives, but was killed by the Senate House just because it's a Republican budget plan.  The Democrat-majority Senate House could not come up with their own budget to compromise with the Lower House. Niether President Obama was able to lead both parties to meet and come up with a budget to give our economy some common sense of direction, nor he was able to come up with his own plan.  In other words, for 3 and a half years of Obama administration the United States doesn't have a budget plan. What difference would it make for the next four years of his re-election?

Gustavo Dudamel

Charcoal on paper.  He's the current conductor of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra.

Quick sketch on paper. They've out brazened the government ruling party that shakened the political arena and kicked out the congressional ruling party.  But the fight has only just began...
