Brilliant Lewis. Jack Palance’s looks fitted so well.

Marvellous expressions!

I like how the faces are identical and yet the personalities are so palpably different and so effectively depicted. Great stuff!

You can see the dark and light sides of this individual Lewis. Will there be a Burke and Hare in your villains gallery?

Thank you Linda, Richard and Fiona. There'll be no Burke & Hare, Fiona. Great characters to draw, but sadly they were all too real...and I'm doing fictional.

Stevenson doesn't describe Hyde's appearance much, beyond 'ghastly' and 'cadaverous'. I prefer the film versions where he isn't turned into a monster, but his behaviour changes. To make sense he must have looked like a normal person, albeit a scary one, and looked a bit like Jekyll. Way back the BBC made a version starring Jack Palance in this fashion. 6 x 4 inches.

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.
