Over at E-Caricatures, our theme for this month's contest, in honour of the popular tradition known as "Movember", is Famous Mustaches. I decided to draw the first person who always comes to my mind on those numerous (in fact, near constant) occasions when I think about famous guys with mustaches... Tom Selleck.
Done in Sketchbook Pro.
Cuz "blog" is a stupid word, and i refuse to lay claim to one.

This isn't really only the second time I've posted in 2013, is it?
My quick, poorly-coloured sketch of Emma Stone, American actress best known for starring in about 50% of all movies released in the last three years. Done for this month's caricature contest at the E-Caricatures forum, the theme for which is, coincidentally, Emma Stone.

I thought about just using a white silhouette on a light blue background.
The latest caricature contest at E-Caricatures is Mark Zuckerberg, with the added rule that this month, we must post rough sketches only.
Here's mine.

How creepy can he really be when his first name is Bela?
Here's my caricature sketch of Bela Lugosi. He was an actor. A long time ago. Played Dracula, the most famous undead dude in history. Now he's dead.
This was for this month's E-Caricatures challenge.

Turns out terrifying-clown, botched-surgery deathmasks are surprising difficult to capture.
This Is Joan Rivers, sketched in Sketchbook Pro for this month's E-Caricatures challenge.
She creeps me out.

See how HE likes it!
My caricature sketch of "Weird Al" Yankovic, for the July caricature contest at ecaricatures.proboards.com. I realized too late that I had drawn his glasses crooked. By "too late" I mean, "after I had already not cared enough to fix it."

Adele.... Yeah, I have no joke title here. Just Adele.
Look, I know very little about her, despite not being able to turn on a TV, radio or computer or open a newspaper or magazine without hearing/ seeing her name. I just know that I'm not a fan, and that she's got a good face for caricature.
So.... here it is. It's Adele.

Look at him, renning all over the place!
I really don't like that I'm posting, like, a caricature a month. How am I nop finding time for more than that?
Anyway, here's Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye in the fantastic movie, The Avengers! Seriously, have you seen this movie? It's just awesome!
I'm thinking I'm gonna do a whole group shot, all in this 70s comic book kinda style. So... you know... there's something for you to get excited about.
This is for E-Caricatures' May contest, by the way. We had an Avengers theme. I picked Jeremy just because I felt like the poor guy is getting less attention from the film than anyone else in it. This should make him feel better.

A Caricawoozle
This is Theodor "Dr. Seuss" Geisel, just a quick, rough sketch for this month's E-Caricatures contest. I really wanted to do a whole body in his own drawing style, but this was all I ended up having time for.

Brosnan... Remington Brosnan.
Our theme for the E-Caricatures contest this month is James Bond. We were supposed to choose any actor who's played James Bond and do a caricature of him. I went with Pierce Brosnan, I guess because he was Bond when I first started taking an interest in Bond films. He may not be my favourite 007 (3rd, if I had to rank them all, although, in fairness, I've never seen Lazenby's Bond), but Goldeneye is still, in my opinion, one of the best of the films.

I also did this one, in an attempt to push the exaggerations further, but I think I may have lost some of the likeness in doing so:

World's most distinguished comb-over.
Here's another contest entry I did up pretty quickly today. It's Sir Richard Attenborough, for Wittygraphy.com.
I know Charlie Brown has never aged a day since the the moment Charles Schulz created him and all, but if he ever did age-- like, a lot-- this is what I imagine he'd look like.

J.K. Jonah K. Jameson.
Yeah, hopefully, I'll have more caricatures to show for my time in 2012. I mean, I'm not gonna go using the word "resolution" or anything, but.... here's hoping.
For now, here's J.K. Simmons, of whom I've been a fan ever since his occasional role on Law & Order. This is for Facebook's weekly caricature challenge, Caricaturama Showdown 3000.

I thought this was the woman in that movie Madame X Vs. Sever. I was wrong.
The theme for this month's E-Caricatures caricature contest is figures from famous portraits. I did this one of John Singer Sargent's Madame X:

I'm thinking it would be cool to start up a series of these.

Best remembered, of course, for her star turn in "Fair Game"...
Here's my caricature sketch of obscure, little-known fashion model Cindy Crawford. Done for the current contest at Wittygraphy.com.

La la la la, laughter. (Yes? No?)
Jim Henson, for this month's E-Caricatures contest. I knew a lot of people were going to (and already had) included references to Kermit the Frog, he being the first Muppet and the one Henson was always best known for. But I wanted mine to pay tribute to a Muppet to whom I had always been a little more partial.

Do we have time for this one, Paul?
Here's my David Letterman sketch I did for the latest Wittygraphy contest. It was my suggestion, so I thought I ought to participate. Unfortunately, I really didn't have time to do as much with it as I would have liked. But at least I got one done.
