The things people say - Spike Milligan by Lewis Cooper
I did a number of scribble sketches trying to caricature Spike's face, but found it too difficult. So this isn't far off a straight portrait, although I have elongated his face a bit. Coloured pencil. He's was a man I found very funny. Offbeat and quite mad at times, the Monty Python bunch are similar, but they came after Spike and were heavily influenced by him.
About the Artist
Lewis Cooper
Self taught. Love drawing. Like to make pictures up, without using reference pics, often in cartoon style. I do other pictures where I do use reference. I'm knocking on a bit, born in 1940 in Greenwich, London. Retired, and loving it.
