Sketch O’The Week

Sketch o’the Week- Sam Elliott!

February 23rd, 2022 | Posted in Sketch O'The Week

Sometimes you eat the sketch… and, wal, sometimes the sketch eats you. This week’s sketch subject is the eternally cool Sam Elliott. This original sketch is not available for sale because one of the subscribers from my newsletter “The Ink Stained Wretch” already bought it. That’s because subscribers see these sketches about two week before the rest of the interwebs do. That’s what you should subscribe to my free newsletter! This sketch would have really tied the room together! READ MORE

Sketch o’the Week: Howard Hesseman!

February 16th, 2022 | Posted in General

I don’t want my weekly sketches to become a “this famous person just died” exercise, but people that had some importance to me keep croaking. Just a few weeks ago we lost actor Howard Hesseman, who was most famous for his role as veteran radio DJ “Dr. Johnny Fever” in the classic sitcom “WKRP in Cincinnati”. WKRP was one of my favorite TV comedies back in the day. It only lasted four seasons, but what a four seasons it was. Brilliant writing and some of the best characters and casting in TV history. Hesseman was one of the best parts of the show. I had to… READ MORE

Sketch o’the Week: Meat Loaf!

February 9th, 2022 | Posted in Classic Rock Sketch Series

This week’s subject is recently deceased rock star Michael Lee Aday AKA Meat Loaf. Meat Loaf wasn’t just known for his music and acting… he’ll also go down in history for recording one of the longest and most overperformed karaoke songs of all time, “Paradise by the Dashboard Light”! Speaking of that song, I didn’t know until recently that the famous live video performance that was so ubiquitous on MTV back when MTV actually played music videos did not feature the woman who dueted with Meat Loaf on that song on the album “Bat Out of Hell”. That original performer was Ellen Foley. Foley was unable to tour… READ MORE

Sketch o’the Week: Van Morrison!

February 2nd, 2022 | Posted in Sketch O'The Week

This week’s sketch is another in my “Classic Rock” series. Here’s my take on Irish singer/songwriter Van Morrison! Morrison’s look has changed so much from the 60’s to today, it was tough to decide what era to draw him from. I chose the 70’s, when he really established himself as a major star. Frankly I’m not sure I couldn’t pass this one off as Ludwig Van Beethoven if I just lost the mic. Maybe it’s just the crazy hair and ascot. They do both have “Van” in their names. . .coincidence?

Sketch o’the Week- Bob Saget!

January 26th, 2022 | Posted in Sketch O'The Week

Like so many people, we in the Richmond household were sad to hear of the passing of actor and comedian Bob Saget. Bob is kind of a superstar around here because my oldest daughter The Animated Elizabeth, loves “Full House” and watches the show on her TV and iPad a lot, especially the earlier seasons. Elizabeth is 32 and autistic, and her videos are something that comfort her. She likes watching them over and over, although she has several hundred in her library, mostly Sesame Street, Barney and other kids video series. “Full House” is one of the few typical TV shows she likes and watches.… READ MORE

Sketch o’the Week- Tom Waits!

January 19th, 2022 | Posted in Classic Rock Sketch Series

This week’s sketch is musician, composer, songwriter and actor Tom Waits. Oh sure, he’s a multiple Grammy winner, was named one of Rolling Stone’s “Top 100 Songwriters of All Time” and is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame… but to me he’ll always be the bug-eating R. M. Renfield in Francis Ford Coppola’s “Bram Stoker’s Dracula”! READ MORE

Sketch o’the Week- Bruno Mars!

January 12th, 2022 | Posted in Sketch O'The Week

This week’s sketch is a young Bruno Mars. As always, the original is available in the Studio Store. This one is a little smaller than my usual sketches so it’s also a little cheaper! READ MORE

This week’s sketch is of Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith as “Jay and Silent Bob” from “Clerks” and several other films from Smith’s “View Askewniverse”. Original available in the studio store! READ MORE
