Sketch O’The Week

No time for a real sketch today, so here’s something from a few years ago. I did this sketch and color final of Alec Baldwin for Comedy Central for a roast they were doing of him in 2019. It was supposed to be used for a giant head/mask they were thinking of creating for part of the show, but I have no idea if or how it was ever used. Here’s the color version: I remember they had me tone down the chipmunk cheeks and some other parts, so the final does not have as strong a likeness IMO. Welcome to Hollywood. READ MORE

One of the unfortunate things about that “History of the Sitcom” illustration I did for CNN earlier this month was that so many terrific and landmark shows were not included because we couldn’t include them all. Of course we only had so much room, and the CNN folks gave me a list of who they wanted me to draw. There were very few pre-60’s sitcoms represented. So, I thought I might draw a few of the characters from some shows that weren’t included but were certainly worthy. This is a big one… “The Dick Van Dyke Show”! Here’s Mary Tyler Moore and Dick Van Dyke!… READ MORE

I promised a pal of mine I’d do a sketch of Tom Brady for him back when the Bucs won the Superbowl… just getting around to it now. Love him or hate him, the guy has won seven Superbowls. READ MORE

Well, it’s not really a “Sketch o’the Week”. Rather, it’s one of the original inked pieces from my recently revealed “History of the Sitcom” key art illustration. This one is Henry Winkler as “The Fonz” from “Happy Days”. CNN would not give me permission to do a print of that art, and they have no plans to do one. However I do have all the original inked art, so a few people can get a part of this illustration via one of the groups of characters. I have them all available in the Studio Store. Get ’em while they are still gettable. READ MORE

It’s another “Schmendrick” sketch! This week’s subject is the late, great Richard Harris as “English Bob” from “Unforgiven”. You can get a sketch like this of Mr. Harris or 22 other possible character from one of the parodies in CLAPTRAP by backing us as a Schmendrick. READ MORE
