None of these portraits quite capture his likeness, but the central one is possibly the closest. He had an extraordinarily interesting head shape.

About Me
- Karen Cheung
- United Kingdom
- Hello! I am an illustrator, animator and artist based in the UK. I am represented by Jelly London. Please visit my portfolio here. I like to draw freaks and monsters, or animals with personality disorders - these are the kind of people I find interesting. I love vintage homewares, going to auctions and wearing bad knitwear.
The name Alternative Eagle comes from a childish, deliberate mispronunciation of 'alter ego'. Best not to ask exactly how that came about - you'd probably think I'm mad. Thank you for stopping by. Any comments or suggestions are always welcome :-) Read more about me here.

Life drawing - very cool! Likenesses are so hard to capture. It's often about what's behind the eyes than the eyes themselves.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sketches. Hope you're well! x
Hi Laura! Thanks for your comment - yes, likenesses are really hard to get right, and the eyes are all important.
ReplyDeleteI'm very well thanks - still no new house, but slowly slowly... Hope you are well too. x
I'm good thanks! Still no new house for us either, but we'll get there! Hope you're enjoying Wales, though. :) x
ReplyDeleteThanks, Wales is lovely, even through the freezing winter. Good luck with finding a place to live x
