Occasionally I’d like to share pieces of artwork I really like.
Here’s one, I find, one of the best paintings of likenesses in a movie poster, I’ve seen.

I don’t know who did the painting. A scribbled signature can be seen appearing to be ‘E. Hantrell’, but I can’t find who that is or was.
Please let me know if you know who the painter was.

The poster art for ‘Carry on, Cowboy’ is stupendous.
The likenesses are excellent. Simple painting method with startling results. It’s not just the likeness of Sidney James, in the middle. It’s also the angle portrayed. Excellent work!

The Kenneth Williams, with arrow in backside, part seems to be the law of ‘Carry On’ posters, as each has his iconic shocked looked.
Charles Hawtry is also perfect, getting Hawtry’s image and him in action as hilarious indian chief.

The ladies are really the best of the lot. Joan Sims, farthest right, appears to be in the background. Taking another view of the poster and she stands out due to the painting techniques.

That leaves Angela Douglas, the only one still with us today. Seems clear to me her head was redone and attached later. Note her neck area, angle of head and light blue splashed around, what might otherwise be, cut lines. Wonder if that was Douglas or someone else?

Still an excellent painting. Too bad the poster is messy otherwise.

Here’s the drawing I did live Sunday.
Making it up as I went along.

The response to the dragon drawing two weeks ago had me adding one this time.
Scott Shaw! last week typed in ‘Investigator’, which I saw after the live broadcast. Though I’d use it this time.
A call from Marguerite Cavenaugh just as I was to go live had me ask her her favorite animal. Thus, the elephant.
I saw Pam Archer tune in as I started, reminding me of the pineapple statue near where she life in Lake Placid, Florida.
Needed a good name for the savings and loan the dragon was pilfering from. Looking through those watching the broadcast, saw a good, short name that fit. So I swiped it from Melissa Busby.

The live broadcasts have gone well and sure helps me as an exercise of drawing. Especially as I’ve been stepping aside the live gig work.
Thank, you all, who have been tuning in! 🙂

A sped-up version is coming soon!

Here’s the illustration I drew live Saturday during Ha-ba-Da-Bee off the top of my head of a squirrel family cookin’ some vittles! Hope you all have a family cook out soon! Psst! leave a few bites for the squirrels while yer at it! 🙂

Here’s a big part of my annual Christmas illustration of Florida critters at the 70 year old The Candy Kitchen in Madeira Beach. I’m posting different portions on my pages.
