Tom Gehrke's Faves

Sketchbook, ink, coffee and onion

During the lockdown I'm doing a series of cat portraits for Gatti di Roma in Rome. I've auctioned this and all proceeds went to the charity.

A fun Super Deformed drawing of the famous droid duo from Star Wars. Even though it's very simple and stylized, there was still a lot of detail to get right. Making a simplified, SD version of R2 was especially challenging, so I made him kinda wide. I am still experimenting with unique styles, but it was fun and I like the result. I spent longer on the background than you probably think I did.

its 2020, you know what that means....virus and social distancing o.o

I did set up the ingredients for an Easter bread with raisins and nuts, so i could make a sketch of it before i made the dough. While the dough was resting i worked it out in pen and ink.

All Done! I’m pretty happy with how it turned out, but a few of the proportions are way off... but oh well. And I absolutely suck at manes(hair) soooo ya. Also I was curious, I’m thinking about getting some prints made of my artwork to sell, do any of you think you or someone you know would be interested in prints? Just curious, thanks! Hope you all are healthy and well! Photo by: Photography by Kelly and Kelly

I was feeling really sad and scared, and the weight of the world's crisis weighed heavy on me, so I wanted to paint something lovely and bright. Acrylic on Kraft cardstock
