Oh, I do like that one. You've captured his cocky sarcasm to a nicety. The detail on the hat is great!

We are up at frightful hours of the morning, aren't we. I'm glad you like my Sands. I drew this at a Chuckwagon Race. I suppose I should have raised the rating just because of what he's probably thinking! LOL.

I should have raised the rating just because of what he's probably thinking! LOL.

He is such an amusing and yet thoroughly unsavory character! One can't help but like him, even while thinking one shouldn't!

Yes, we need to get some sleep (although I snoozed for an hour or two earlier. Not quite as efficacious as going to bed, though).

[honorat.livejournal.com]

Yes, there should be some balance between waking and sleeping. I just haven't figured it out yet. I'm up late putting together an advertising PowerPoint for the English Department.

[geekmama.livejournal.com]

PowerPoint is a fun program. I sometimes put together slides for the principal to use at meetings. Very user friendly.

Whoohoo! I made an icon! I have no idea how to put text on 'em, but yay! Pretty picture.

[geekmama.livejournal.com]

Fantastic!! I have Photoshop and Illustrator, and use those to make icons and add text. What program did you use?

[honorat.livejournal.com]

I have Adobe Photoshop in the sense that I possess the program and use it to scan images, but I haven't the least idea how to do anything else with it. I imagine I shall have to read the manual. So far I have mastered image size and cropping.

[geekmama.livejournal.com]

You shouldn't have much trouble learning to add text. It's pretty easy.

But these do look great unadorned, too. Beautiful work!

Another! Still brilliant - I feel like a parrot.

[honorat.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I parrot right back. I don't mind parrots. Rather fond of 'em in fact.

[order_of_chaos]

Awk. Wind in yer sails!

This is fantastic, I love him, probably my second favorite JD character.

[honorat.livejournal.com]

Thank you again for the comments. I can't quite figure out why I like this guy so much! I'd never want to meet him, but what a terrific character! And JD always manages to give such a unique performance when directors let him loose.

But he's such a beautiful psychotic killer!

I love Sands. This is gorgeous.

[honorat.livejournal.com]

Sigh! Yes he is way too beautiful for it to be at all healthy or legal! You just have to love the psychopathic agent! Thank you very much for commenting.

I just love this drawing! *right-clicks and saves* It's just beautiful. Do you have others you've done? I would love to see them.

[honorat.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much.
I keep the drawings I post to my LJ in my Memories, under My Art (http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=honorat&keyword=My+Art&filter=all)

I just got my scanner working, so art will be appearing gradually. I've got a heap of Johnny Depp art.

Just wanted to say that you do beautiful, beautiful work. The eyes on all the drawings are particularly lovely, you really capture their character in their expression. You draw hands beautifully too, (Gibbs' hands I noticed), and hands can be a bugger to capture.

Thanks for sharing these, they really brightened my day, wonderful artwork.

Oh, and afterthought...the stitching on the leather strap going across Jack Sparrow's chest...ahhh, the pretty, lovely shading.

I'm delighted you are enjoying my art. Eyes and hands are my favourite things to draw. They're just so expressive. Have a lovely day.
