This is slightly off topic, but easily justifiable as it is artwork that appears in the newspaper. Randy Glass, one of the illustrators at the Wall Street Journal, does that amazing stipple art portraits was mentioned yesterday on the Drawn! blog. I’ve been so impressed with stipple art that I had to pass along the link. Randy has a great portfolio of not only the Wall Street Journal headcuts, but pencil and water color work. Definitely worth the time to visit his site.
To learn more about the stipple art, I’ve had these sites bookmarked. The National Portrait Gallery tells how the stipples are made; NPR interviews Noli Novak, one of the artists at the WSJ.
