Well, sort of. I'm at work but slacking off (have to stop doing that) and I was looking at some amazing caricatures on another art blog, which I have now closed without saving the link, well done me. Then I realised I forgot to put up some other older drawings I did, these from my final year of secondary school, for our yearbook. Uploading them now makes me feel a bit better about having nothing else ready to post yet. So here they are, a blast from the past.
From top to bottom: our Head of Sixth Form, the Girls School Headmistress, the Warden (aka the top dog - it's a confusing system) and the Boys School Headmaster. Done in pencil on paper, from photographs. My favourite is the one of our Head of Sixth Form - I spent the most time on it so it's more exaggerated than the others, which came out more like straight portraits. I don't think any of them were offended though, Mrs G. even kept the original one of hers. I really hope it's still in her study, grinning at girls getting told off for wearing too much mascara and too little skirt.
