Fresh off the drawing board – Spidey-Man inks! This was a cover I started during the comic book class I held this Summer. Took a little while to get to this point. Sorry, but I had other deadlines that came first. I will be doing this in full color, too!
Here are the pencils for a parody cover I started, in class, as an example for my students, who were learning drawing for comic books. Yes, we covered your standard ‘adventure’ style drawing and storytelling (plus Manga). But I’ve always been partial to humorous storytelling, in my own work anyway.
You can imagine the thoughts that went through their heads as I demonstrated this 5 point perspective piece. Not to worry, I only made them do a 2 point perspective. Couldn’t have 10-12 years old’s heads exploding! (well, not again)
Inks and color to follow!
As you all know, I draw live caricatures at parties as well. I’ve been asked a number of times in the past couple of weeks if I would do drawing lessons at, say, birthday parties too. Yes, this is something I offer. Kids love it! (I’ve also done it for a company get together or two)
A review: My kiddo is a tough customer so when she says she had a great time and wants to go back for more, you know she really means it! We’re looking forward to signing up for more of Jerry’s classes during the summer sessions.
