Han Solo

I guess you can say this is a WIP. It is a quick sketch that I scanned in to practice digital painting. Hopefully I can find the time to finish it up.

Gift Caricature

This was done as a gift for a High School graduation. This guy likes paintball, (I think it is) x-box, iphones, taffy,pizza, and Pepsi. Michelle Obama would not be pleased with his diet, but he seems to be an active guy.

Stuart Scott

A small tribute to Stuart Scott. He will be missed. My favorite ESPN anchor, he was cooler then the other-side of the pillow

Happy 2015!

Happy 2015! I hope to post far more frequently this year. I guess that is my resolution. I am also updating my website, mikebriggz.com so please feel free to check it out. The above illustration was our holiday card this year. It is spoofing A Christmas Story's poster. This is a pencil drawing colored in photoshop.
I hope you a happy 2015 and hope to post more for you.

Super David Ortiz. I did this one after the Red Sox won the 2014 World Series. Ortiz was surely "Super" in his performance, and rightfully one MVP. This illustration was featured on bostondirtdogs.com.

Ted Williams

Here is a work in progress of a project I am working on. It is of Teddy Ballgame. Should be more to come shortly.

Obama

Commissioned

Here is a wedding sign-in board I did a little while back, I never got around to posting it.

BEAT LA!

These are the Folks the C's need to beat to hang #18 from the rafters. They are a very impressive group of individuals. Go C's! BEAT LA!!!
I'd like to thank my bro for the idea on this one.

Big Jon

Here is one I did of Red Sox Lefty pitcher Jon Lester. It was good to see Jon throw a one hitter through 9 last night.

Nomar

Here is one of Red Sock Nomar Garciaparra. I started this one this morning when I found out he was returning to the Red Sox to retire. I thought it was a strange move, but I like the gesture. I enjoyed watching Nomar play. This one made it on to the
Dirt Dogs, which makes me very happy:)

E-Rock

I have not posted in a long time, I have been working on a few things, that I can not post, but I wanted to do a quick post. Here is a friend of mine, and fellow caricaturist Eric Goodwin. I wanted to draw something with a light source coming from below, and that is really the only reason for this drawing. It was fun to work on. I hope you enjoy it. More post coming soon.

MADMEN

This is just a quick doodle of John Hamm as Don Draper from Mad Men. I am working on a couple of projects right now, I did this as a "coffee break". I drew it on an 7x10 sketch book using marker and color sticks. then I took a scan messing up the levels.

Snooki

Here is a real quick one of Snickahs, Snooki, whatevah from the Jersey Shore. She is super talented.

Peyton

Here is one of QB Peyton Manning, he has had a great year this year, but...... I do not think it will end well for him.

GO SAINTS!!!

Dick

This is a small section of a project I just finished. It is of Dick Cheney...I think today is his birthday.

Samples

Here are 3 samples I did for a convention I worked this past weekend. I used Copic Markers for the first time, with Prisma color pastels. I like these mediums for this convention, it was cleaner and quieter then using the airbrush in a hotels lobby.

The carictures are Robert Patterson, Harrison Ford, and Angelina Jolie. Sorry for the bad photo.

Eastwood

This is just a sketch book drawing I did of one of my favorite actors. It was done with a col-erase pencil, and a blue bic pen. I may try to make a painting of it when I've got the time.
