Ricky (fucking) Gervais

I got a bad case of tremors during this drawing and messed up Ricky's face!...in frustration and temper I put the big red cross through it.
I decided to leave it like this.
The title reflects what I was muttering at the time!
 

Ellen Barkin

This is a study I did of my dear

friend, American actress, producer and activist, Ellen Barkin. The full drawing was damaged, again caused by my Parkinson's tremors, when I knocked over a bottle of blue ink, while reaching for a brush.

After my initial anger at being so clumsy, I came to like the 'look' of the blue spill, as it seemed to echo the 'attitude'

of this wonderful woman.
