    Men in Fedoras

    I love to draw people and create new characters. So a lot of my work features portraiture. Whether the person is famous or not, I try to think, what does he look like and what does he do? For instance, I recently did a portrait of Sheldon from Big Bang Theory. In the portrait, I included him doing the Spock Symbol because it shows the nerdy and quirky personality he displays on the show.

    All my work is graphic, simple and colorful, and lately I've been gearing it more conceptual. I enjoy putting different elements together. In the poster, it's of a man drinking coffee sitting on a man holding a cigar and drinking coffee himself. So it could be the man thinking about himself or the man himself in a surrealist way. I didn't think much about what would happen next. Although I am hoping he doesn't fall into the coffee or get burned by the cigar.
