Normally, I'll post a sketch here for you, while my Patrons get an extra & try to guess the link between them. Today, I'm posting both & letting everyone guess! (A Patreon preview, I guess? patreon.com/jrobertdeans)
Today's sketches are Hammerhead (Star Wars) & Binky (Life is Hell). What's the link?

Security comes up to check on someone supposedly injured by the escalator, but they have no idea the person threw themselves up and into it repeatedly.

I was expecting, "Do not talk about escalator safety."

Haven't been able to see SUPERMAN yet, but I sketched out the... Iconic? Infamous? Guy Gardner played by Nathan Fillion. If you like this piece (graphite on 4x6 bristol) & want it for your collection, let me know! Cheers!
(Patrons! Can you guess the theme between this and your exclusive sketch?)

The results of drawing w/a migraine. Trying for Catherine Mary Stewart, and got... Daphne Zuniga? The weather forecast decided I was done, but since we learn more from our mistakes... However, if you want it for your collection, let me know! Graphite on 4x6 bristol. Cheers!

@stevelieberart.bsky.social Steve, I got my JO book! Thank you! And to everyone at @helioscopepdx.bsky.social who also signed it. My only regrets are that Parker didn't know mine so no snarky message from him, and...
Jesse isn't here to sign it and enjoy your portrait of him.
I still miss that guy.

Watching a favorite, 1943's "A Stranger In Town," a film about corruption in politics. Watching it a lot, lately. (*ahem*)
While watching, I drew it's star, Frank Morgan.

I get it... I started posting daily sketches on Instagram just to try and get a few more eyes on my work so that when I put out the call for commissions, I might get an extra order or two. Whatever it takes these days, right?

I appreciate your support... and totally understand. Did your campaign achieve its goal?

If my friend Ibrahim can get 400 folks to be notified when his Kickstarter launches, the campaign will get priority placement, making it a LOT easier for him and his team to get funding for his story of bloodlust, honor, and redemption.

He needs less than ten folks. Give him a boost, yeah?

Cheers!

@seanferrick.bsky.social Too late to send this to Goldsman and the other producers of SNW for a post-edit fix?

A pencil sketch by Robert Deans of actress Katharine Hepburn from The Philadelphia Story

Found a publicity still from THE PHILADELPHIA STORY apparently hoping to turn Katharine Hepburn into Veronica Lake. Seemed a challenge, so I took it as such. It got away from me a bit, but I think it turned out OK. Want to add it to your collection? Let me know. It's graphite on 4x6 bristol. Cheers!

A pencil sketch by Robert Deans of Ozzy Osbourne

A pencil sketch by Robert Deans of Ozzy Osbourne

While I feel the reality show turned him into self-parody, there's no denying Osbourne's impact on music. Farewell to a legend...
This piece is graphite on 4x6 bristol, and will be in my shop soon.

My Patreon sketch today was the newspaper strip version of the Phantom, so for today's regular sketch I thought why not go for two, and draw Billy Zane as the Ghost Who Walks? Graphite on 4x6 bristol. Want it for your collection? Let me know!
