That Reminds Me…
Walking about London I still see quite few t-shirts and memorabilia for sale of the late Amy Winehouse. They reminded me of the time around 2008 or so that a fellow caricaturist here in the UK emailed me these pictures from British weekly gossip magazine Heat:
Yes, that’s my caricature of Amy Winehouse taken directly from this blog the fan in the article is trying to get her to sign. Here’s the original scan:
Gotta love that disgusted look on her face. I get that a lot.
I know the article credits the fan for doing the drawing, but let’s not jump to conclusions. The fan in question isn’t quoted or named so it’s just as likely this picture was sold to the tabloid and some copywriter hacked out that paragraph assuming the fan was the artist as it is that the fan actually claimed to have drawn it.
