I decided to take photos after most sessions while painting my George Lucas. So these are some of the pictures in a step by step order. I hope you enjoy!

Brrilliant Jason. Digital is fun but nothing beats having something tangible and original to show like this. YOur hair is looking great these days. I also love the Mr. Bauer drawing on the previous post.

This is flat out Sebastian Kruger-amazing. And coming from me, that's the best compliment you can possibly give to a caricature artist.

Wow Jason. This was my favourite sketch. The final piece is incredible amazing (no wonder it won 1st place) and now the process makes it a master class. I'm going to study all the process and learn a lot from it. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Thank you much everyone, I'm honored enough of you are interested in seeing the process, so thank you for your interest. I'll be saving my process while working on my painting of Robert Bauer and will share that as well.

Sam, who's Kruger? Do you mean that hack from Germany? Just kidding, thanks man, that's a big compliment for sure, although I must say I closed my Kruger books a few years back thanks to advice from my friend Thomas Fluharty!

As to what surface I'm painting on . . . this is painted on linen board on birch. Made by New Traditional Panels.
