Ant and Dec Caricature

It's that time of year again when I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here hits our screens again! And again, I am addicted! Mostly due to the hilarious Jimmy Bullard who must be the favourite to win.

But as we say every year, the best thing about the show is it presenters, Ant and Dec. They have a chemistry that can only come from growing up together and manage to make every link and introduction entertaining.

Anyway, here is my tribute to the best presenters on UK television.

Rory McIlroy Caricature

Next to football, golf is another passion of mine. So I had to paint the best golfer in the world today. This would be a dream job for me, so if there is anyone out there looking for a golf related caricature/painting, gimme a shout!

David Cameron Caricature

This was a caricature of David Cameron I did for the Scottish referendum. This was kind of a big dear in Scotland around September time and the result determined whether Scotland would separate from the UK and become an independent nation, or remain part of the UK. The result was for Scotland to remain part of the UK, hence the party hat etc.

Gary Vaynerchuk Caricature

Been enjoying drawing some caricatures recently. I haven't drawn any for years and thought I'd get back into it. This is a quick painting I did of Gary Vaynerchuk. I've been watching a lot of his keynote speeches and his podcast Ask Gary Vee which give great business and advice for social media.

Right, back into my art cave for commission work!

Legends of Football - Ronaldo Portrait

Had some time this week to continue with my Legends of Football series. The second portrait in the series is the greatest number 9 I have seen in my lifetime and has to be one of the greatest ever - Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima.

Ronaldo made his international debut for Brazil in a friendly against Argentina in 1994. He then went to the World Cup in 1998, largely renowned as the world's greatest player. He played his final game for Brazil in a specially arranged match, having scored 62 international goals in 98 appearances. Despite it being almost unheard of in international football for players to be given a farewell match for their national side, Brazilian Football Confederation officials stated that given the extraordinary career of Ronaldo, it was only fitting that his final game should take place in Brazil while representing his nation.

Ronaldo played for club sides Cruzeiro, PSV, Barcelona, Inter Milan, Real Madrid, AC Milan and Corinthians, scoring a total of 352 goals in 518 appearances. 

If you have any ideas for club legends for your team, let me know! I'd like to make this into a bit of a series! :)
