I broke in my new easel this weekend with this charcoal study. Self-portrait with Stephen Merchant. Charcoal on paper 100cm x 70cm. Click pic to enlarge.
Aha. Can now do a bit of name dropping by saying that I quite often see Marchant wandering around the O2 Centre on Finchley Road (looking suitably gormless). He has that look in his eye of yes-I-know-I'm-a-somebody-but-please-please-fucking-please-don't-stop-to-talk-to-me.
I don't. Wouldn't have anything to say to the bloke anyway.
Holy cow but you can draw. Really like the contrast between the faces, comic boxes, and that wonderfully shaped circle-stick thing in the bottom right corner. What is that, a magical pencil broom?
