This was my 6th attempt at doing a figure using acrylics which are super frustrating. They don't blend and they dry too quickly. Argh. But anyway, an excuse to stare at a photo of John Krasinski for a while. :o) The pants have problems though, my reference photo cut him off at the zipper, and I was hesitant to ask someone in class to be my pants model.

I picked up a book on Edward Gorey and was inspired to do something in his style. For the subject matter I chose the wood chipper scene from Fargo. I think it was appropriate. The paper photographed wonkily, and that's why the lettering is so terrible. Really.
