I drew this guy while watching 60 Minutes. It doesn’t work very well to draw people on tv who are in sit-coms, because they all seem to look alike, but news shows have more interesting faces.
Thanks to Jane for getting me motivated to try turning a drawing into a stitched piece. How could I have been about to pass up this week’s Illustration Friday theme?
I almost got the fabric cut and stitched in an hour (sixty minutes — ha ha, get it?) The back is almost as interesting as the front…
and here’s the original sketch in pen from my notebook…
You never cease to amaze me! Great job!!
I love your new header too….really makes me chuckle!!

This is terrific! Thanks for stopping by my blog and for the kind comments. This is great inspiration for this weeks’ 12 x 12.
Great job! Thanks for turning me on to Jane’s site also. I have seen this style of art and really liked it. I always wanted to give it a try. Anything you can tell me to help get started I would appreciate!
He turned out great, front and back!
Awesome! The back of my piece looks cool too – but I forgot to take a picture before I affixed it to the canvas. Oops.
