Sketch o’the Week
The Lovely Anna and I went to see “True Grit” this past weekend. I loved it… she was ambivalent. Must be a guy flick. Jeff Bridges was fantastic and the trademark razor sharp dialogue of the Cohen Brother’s films was very prevalent. Sketch done with a Uni-ball Vision Micro-tip ball point pen… not much of a caricature but and interesting face to draw.

Not much of a caricature!1 What the hey?! It really
captures the actor and the role! Grit almost made my top ten list.
Guess I can’t get John Wayne out of my head. And , of course, that
fantastic rendering of him by Drucker for the MAD movie parody!
It’d be great if MAD did a parody of the new version! Ah well, a
guy can dream…
I Love it, Tom! I’m blown away by your ability to caricature Rooster Cogburn, the character, rather than Jeff Bridges the actor. I know the difference is minimal but the impact is huge.
Awesome work. Ballpoint pens can be amazing tools.
Hi Tom great lines with the vall point pen, it captures a real western look. Take care.
wow tom, wow.
Nice. You should consider turning pro.
Tom that is a really great sketch! Wishing you and Anna & the family a very Happy New Year!
Nice one Tom!
Thanks, everybody!
All I could think while looking at that is: Wow, there’s a LOT of cross hatching with that pen in the eye patch and on the under side of the hat!!
It makes my wrist tired just thinking about it!!!!
Just saw “True Grit”, so when I saw this caricature, I just had to show my husband. We loved that movie! You captured Rooster well!
