Dear Mme Mailarta-
Yeah, I figured that I should spread the wealth, so to say. I just decided to mail everyone who shared the same address on Broad st.
The dude in the portrait (and it`s not a good likeness) is Roy Rogers. I don`t tend to draw people that I have a emotion connection to - I choose people based on their facial features. They have to have an interesting face. In Roy`s case, it was the mischief in his eyes. It`s drawn using a variety of sharpies, one colour at a time. I use the contrasts and overlapping colours to build up the contours and shading to the face.
