I just started a year long stint with a publisher doing an illo for ever month.
When the director said they needed a painting of a "Fat Dude on a Bike"
I thought this would work. I always get stuck on colors, of mainly clothes. I
never thought of what clothes he should be wearing but looking down at my
attire, he sort of dressed himself. Never having a great self image of myself
it was easy to add these.
It was nice, my 2 year old girls even said, "that's a painting, you're my daddy."
Reference is always key!
