The Most Infamous Assassin

John Wilkes Booth caricature in black and white charcoal. He's America's most infamous assassin who killed President Abraham Lincoln. He thought that after killing the widely criticized president, he would be doing his countrymen a favor of getting rid of a tyrant. It turned out that he became the most hated villain who cowardly killed an unarmed man by shooting at the man's back. An intelligent man who possesses good looks and charm. He's also a Shakespearean actor.

"Ripper Street"

Mathew Macfadyen in charcoal. 9x12 Gray toned paper.
This is the funny part of the process behind this artwork: looking at the picture at the start of the drawing, I thought the picture I was working on was of Hugh Jackman (X-Men). Honestly, it really look like him so the whole time I was thinking about Hugh Jackman and how to make it look like him. At the end of the drawing I thought of checking the whole cast of that show, Ripper Street. It turned out that I was wrong for the whole time I was trying to make him look like Jackman. The man happen to be Mathew Macfadyen!

Ciaran Hinds

Julius Caesar #2

This a caricature of Ciaran Hinds who portrayed the role of the Emperor Julius Caesar in the HBO TV series "Rome". I loved that whole series of 24 episodes, 2 seasons with a twist at the end. It's way better than the other series, The Game of Thrones, which has no interesting story.

Ciaran Hinds as Julius Caesar in HBO Tv series "Rome". Quick study caricature in pencil.

Peter Dinklage

I was trying to emulate artist Dave Malan's line drawing. I thought that his lines are so exact, like it's carefully calculated, no smudges, just simple hatches. Yet his drawing looks so superb. The artwork below is my own caricature of Peter Dinklage of the HBO tv series, the "Game of Thrones". It's not even close to Malan's style. If Dave would have done this he might have focused more on the eyes by sharpening the contrast, and probably elaborate more on the hair to give more an interesting look. Yeah... why didn't I think of that?
