Loosely Familiar


Looking at Gerald Scarfe's work reminds me of looseness. Same with Ralph Steadman. The top two figures are Scarfe knock-offs. The bottom figures are mine: Richard Harris, Johnny Marr, and Thom Yorke. I like Yorke's image the best.

Gerald Scarfe?
I've been a huge fan of Gerald Scarfe since I was 8.
I've been stealing from him for years.

Gerald Scarfe was a big eye-opener for me in terms of drawing and caricature. And I can see his influence in your work very clearly, Elliot.
