“Tito”
Lon Chaney as Tito, from the silent film classic “Laugh, Clown, Laugh”
Been in a real bad rut with my photography and I just can’t seem to get myself excited about it anymore. So, I’ve decided to switch gears and put all those years of art classes and Honors Art to use. Time to dust off the Ebony pencil.
This here is a preliminary sketch of Chicago area horror host and cult icon Svengoolie. It has literally been years since I picked up a pencil with the intent of doing something more than a doodle, and I was pleased with the results so far. Tonight I will go in an tighten up some areas, do some erasing, and get it ready to apply watercolors to.
Why Svengoolie? I have a love of classic horror films, but there was never really a horror host in my area growing up. We had Creature Features when I was a kid, but no host that I can remember. Now, with the marvels of the internet and digital televison, I’ve been discovering the phenomenon for what seems like the first time. Svengoolie is a favorite of mine. I was sad to hear he had some health problems recently, and send my family’s thoughts and prayers out to him and his.
Berwyn! ;)
