George Carlin























The late George Carlin, one of my all time favorite comedians.

Hey Matt,

Thanks for taking some time from your hectic schedule to comment! You've gotta settle down over there. You're not getting any younger, ya know! (j/k)

It's been busy on my side of the web, too. Just pulled another all-nighter to make way for probably another one or two before the year is up.

Yeah, in this unusual political season, it'll be tough not to create an image or two commemorating it.

I look forward to seeing new work, once you get back on-line. Carlin's still looking cool, by the way.

Take care!

Allan

Really nice work. My only critique would be that you need to find a more well balanced midtone (not sure if I told you this, but this is a common error in a lot of your works). Try to start out with a darker midtone, and always remembers, think in simple shapes when you're shading, regardless of whether or not you're using references.

Keep up the great work,
George

Thanks George on your kind comment. Good to hear from you, and your critique is well noted, thank you.

Been really busy in the past month, hope to start painting here soon when things get settled down. Will keep more in touch with you and can’t wait for the next master piece.

Cheers,
Matt

Awesome print...are copies available for purchase? Carlin was my comedic hero, and I would love to have this piece hanging on my wall in tribute.

Please let me know if and how I can purchase. I'm in O.C., so can pick up anytime.

Thanks!
