The Ice-Cream Man

OK, is it just me, or does this guy look like an ice cream cone. Better yet, orange sherbet! This guy brings new meaning to that old adage, "You are what you eat."

I swear to you, right before reading your lines I thought, this guy just looks like an ice cream!
Is it me or does this piece look like a collage rather than a painted piece? is it?

Marcos, I'm glad you had the same impression. It's not a collage, I just added a photoshop shadow layer. The effect is interesting because it does look cut-out.

Marcelo, gracias. Ya te va tocar!

Sam, yep I agree. It was tempting to take this character to the next level with nuts and whipped cream, but I tried to keep him where he was at.

Gino, oh that's gotta be embarrassing for someone to discover themselves that way. Just come on down, you are always welcome to come and draw with us.

Missed you Mark, Hans! We went to the skate park this last time around. Good fun! I'll see about posting some of the sketches from that outing. I'll show them to you when you come by the club next Friday.

Thanks Owen.

Thanks Armand.
