Britney, why do you make me do this?
And I'm back! I have been out of state and out of my mind for the last five days with little to no internet access at a family reunion. Without the world of gossip blogs available, I had to turn to the oh so primitive manner of staying informed- tabloid magazines. Every gossip rag seemed to be reveling in the impending meltdown of the Brit Brit. Poor thing. I had planned on getting back to work with a different celeb, but after seeing the photos of Britney maxing out that g-string, and also seeing outakes from her new music video, I just couldn't resist.
I thought some sort of color coded warning might help when someone you know is going crazy. Now you can rate just how wacked out they are.
This photo I also found inspiring..... So much so, I thought a sexy sad silhouette might be kind of hot sad.
There were easily six other stories I wanted to illustrate today. I nearly had to toss a coin. I swear I'm off the Brit Brit for the time being. Mr McConaughey coming soon. I'm spending a little extra time on that one. Lots of other goodies coming shortly.
So happy to be home and back at it.
The top illustration was completed with acrylic, ink, colored pencil and photoshop.
Below illustration finished with ink on paper.




What a mess!! It's gotten to the surreal stage with this girl.
Can't wait to see the new Matthew!!

Ya know, I'm pretty sure if you said McConaughey and then Metcalf right afterwards, my head would literally explode into confetti..

Welcome back! I'm sure it feels good to get back home..
Eeew, this drawing captures Brit in all her grossness! What's wrong with her, does she have NO shame?? Surely she doesn't think she looks good!

David, your Britney warning system is absolutely Brilliant! Glad you're back in one piece!

LOL, I love the warning system!
I have to agree that the pictures of her in the stripper getup were pretty sad.
