More Batman
The final sketch for the march of Dimes eBay Charity Auction is not a life-drawing from the Cottage in Point Clark, but instead, something more akin to the rest of the work being submitted by other artists involved -a superhero.
The Batman, to be precise. One of the all time classics, rendered unclassically, although not without [...]

A bottle of Yellow Tail Shiraz, polished off and waiting to be recycled.
The whole cottage is made of wood, stained dark and deep with age. I love this sketch, the third in the eBay Charity Auction for March of Dimes.
Rendered with ink & brush.

This sketch shows a Batman with a wider frame and face, particularly the nose. He’s somewhat aged here too. I’m toying with the idea that Batman’s nose would be akin to a boxer or a hockey player having been in one fight too many, along [...]

One of my favorite ways to portray Batman are through the eyes of the criminals who get brief glimpses of him in person, or the concepts a common criminal would have of him. In this case, it’s something like an alien.
