Touched Up Artwork for Kobernick Show

UPDATE: The Kobernick Art show was great! I sold the original portrait of Eubie (below), a print of my Obama caricature and tons of greetings cards with cupcakes on them. It was a very interesting and stressful the past few days but it was worth it! I also made some very interesting connections with established artists. Cupcake sketches/ watercolor I did on an empty stomach. Would I lovee to have a cupcake right now.

At first I was just making some art to go in my mom's kitchen but now I'm thinking about selling a few of these at the Kobernick Art Show this week.

Illustration #2 (Hodges) Update

A rough color study. It will be painted in acrylics.

... Thinking about cropping it. I think it's too much space on the right side.

Grey scale of second project. It's a story about some kids "jacking" an ice cream truck... poor things suffer the consequences when the ice cream lady catches up in the end. Ice cream and money coming out of pockets are not apparent right now but the color study will have more detail. I'm also going to make the values on the ice cream lady pop out way more in the color study. Any suggestions? Feel free to give brutal critiques, many have really helped me out in the past! :D
