Not a fan of Lady Gaga, but I found her new video strangely interesting, and made a quick painting.

Not intended to really be a likeness, by the way.

Is this the first man I’ve drawn in ages?  I do believe it is!

Will my next painting contain hands?  I hope so! ;)

I’m a bit sad he seems to wear less purple in his newer stuff.  Magicians should always wear some sort of purple ;)

Making this reminded me of some of my old celebrity portraits I made last year that were a bit on the more serious side.  I still have some fondness for them, so I thought I’d put them up :)  Click on the jump to see!

Radiohead’s Thom Yorke:

Sally Field (bizarrely, this is the person my sister thought of when I asked her to name someone for me to draw.  She has no idea why).

These were based on refs that I’m too lazy to dig up again, but they should be on the first or second page of Google images, if you want to see the originals.

Next update soon :)

By the way, I hope when I’m not posting a whole slew of pictures at once that I’ll have more intelligent things to say ;)
