Description
Threw this together while waiting for my car to be serviced...had some guy watching me draw, over my shoulder, which put me off more than a little.
Why he felt I was somewhat obliged to allow this, I do not know. It wasn't performance art. I wasn't busking. I stopped, turned around, and held eye contact with him for an uncomfortable length of time. Needless to say he took my none-too-subtle hint and departed. :)
My brother-in-law was the inspiration for the drawing. There are similarities between he and this character, but I'd be lying if I said it was a direct portrait.
This was drawn pre-pogo (i.e. finger painted), on iPad using ArtStudio.
Thanks for looking.

NICE
very striking! i like the merging of negative and positive space.
I really like this, the perspective, the color and expression all work together really well. I like this type of drawing, with just a slight change to the eye or mouth and a new color, it would have a completely different mood.
Dude, you r so funny. I would not do that to the guy....lol I enjoy people watching me draw cos it strengthens my confidence...Well that's just me...lol Nice work man
I only wish I had the artistic confidence to draw with an audience :). Maybe one day. Practice - practice - practice.
A striking image. Hopefully baldness won't be his fate though I'm sure artistic imagination will compensate nicely. As to the onlooker, why not try him as a ready-made subject. That would replace diffidence with the beginnings of a new confidence.
