The other day I went crazy with a charcoal pencil and did two quick sketches of Conrad Veidt. It's fun to use but if you mess up, there's no tu...

Danny, I come in here to ask for tips on portraits and once again I'm left in awe of your work. Amazing as always! Thanks for sharing those two great stars with us. Glad you discovered the one and only man of a thousand faces. I've been drawing as of late and still haven't grasped the idea of seeing...

I guess we can add Katharine Hepburn and Doris Day on that list because they could be silly when they wanted to. I've always enjoyed watching these comedians: Lucille Ball Carol Burnett Imogene Coca Lily Tomlin TV show comedians: Estelle Getty as "Sophia Petrillo" on Golden Girls. Vicki Lawrence as ...

I just ordered "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" on VHS and mostly because of this description. "Atmospheric and truly macabre, this surprisingly contemporary horror classic is famous for the way John Barrymore, with minimal makeup, used only facial distortion to transform himself. He was so successful that...

Sorry I had not seen this thread before but I must say your work is excellent, Danny. You're able to capture reflections in the subject's eyes and they look so lifelike. I admire all of you that can draw people because I've tried a few times and haven't been successful. Animals are my main subject w...
