NeNe Leakes and her sour puss.....

One more drawing from last night's RHOATL reunion show. This is NeNe sporting a drag race season one (no offense) lace front wig paired with an awkward bun that was an entirely different color and texture. And, it was starting to unravel by the end of the night which I believe was telling...... it's a mood bun. Hit pause on my dvr remote as NeNe served this sour, pouty, mean moose expression.

Phaedra Park's dazzling buffet of faces......

Phaedra's endless array of expressions on the RHOATL reunion shows continue to be the gifts that keep on giving.

Someone, please..... slap me for doing these drawings.

Adore Delano from RuPaul's Drag Race

This is the ferocious Adore Delano shutting it down during this week's lip sync on RuPaul's Drag Race. Go Azusa on them all my queen!

Courtney Act on RuPaul's Drag Race.

Here's the especially lovely Courtney Act from RuPaul's Drag Race.  If you watched this week's episode then you saw her next level prop wings which must have had a 12 ft span.  

Stunning!  Thought I'd have a little fun making some exact opposite tiny wings.  :)

No T, No Shade.  Love you Courtney!

RuPaul Drag Race Fan Art

Apparently my The Bianca Del Rio illustration won the RuPaul's Drag Race fan art contest on last night's episode. #chanteistay

Commissioned portrait.

A big thank you to my reader Patrick who commissioned me to do a portrait of an important person in his life for an important person in his life.  Hugh Metzler was an actor with the Quannapowitt Players, Inc. community theater in Reading, MA.  From the company's website:

It is with a heavy heart that we must pass along some sad news. Hugh Metzler, a long time life member of QP and fixture both on and off-stage, passed away on August 14, 2012. His presence will be sorely missed. He will always be remembered for his many performances on stage, as well as his generosity and friendship off.

Patrick asked me to create a portrait for Hugh's wife which wouldn't be just a straightforward painting, but would like it to have some background detail that spoke to Hugh' love of acting.  So I used pencil, pen, and ink and placed the theater's logo in the lower corner.

Happy to report this protrait was well-recieved.  Patrick also purchased this original acrylic on paper painting from me last year.

Thank you so very much Patrick for including in this lovely and thoughtful project.
