Hi all

Just finished this caricature of my childhood favorite actor Don Knotts. I have some WIP images here (http://www2.ambientdesign.com/forums/showthread.php?p=260158#post260158). I hope you enjoy. Cheers!

He was an under-appreciated comic genius. Great job on this Brent. :)

I also like him too. Only watched one or two of his movies. Don't know the names. Great painting. :)

Terrific painting of a terrific subject. The eyes here are something of a wonder. :):):)

Just a reminder, he was also an incredible singer. :)

Thanks Everyone for the very kind words. I didn't watch Mayberry as I was too young and we didn't have a TV but i remember my parents taking me to see "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" and loved it. i watched it again recently and all the great memories came flooding back. That's what inspired me to do this one. Thanks again!

P.S. Seems like it was a pre-requisite for acting to be a good singer back then. Cheers!

What an absolute delight this is, Brent! I just love Don Knotts and it's a shame you never got to see any of the Mayberry, RFD shows! You'll have to watch some reruns!!! Your caricature abilities are remarkable.
