An interesting subject...portraying David Bowie's many odd film roles. I enjoyed working from the photos, although Mr. Bowie has some very strange facial anatomy. A lot of sketch paper is getting recycled. I've looked online, and it doesn't look like other cartoonists/caricaturists haven't had much better success...from left to right: The Goblin King/Labyrinth (top), Andy Warhol/Basquiat, the alien guy/The Man Who Fell to Earth, Nikola Tesla/The Prestige and Pontius Pilate/The Last Temptation of Christ.
Thanks to

Wow. George Lazenby is quite the looker...I haven't enjoyed drawing someone that much in some time...ha! Maybe that's the magic the Bond franchise needs...take a really gorky looking actor and make them uber-cool! I dunno...
Def Jux heavy-hitters The Perceptionists are coming to Calgary...and I was tapped to do the poster. DJ Cosm opens the show, he hosts a great radio show on CJSW after an afternoon of reggae...check him out.
