Twelve paintings in and I still hear his voice in my head. OHHH, you believe in Samuel L. Jackson now, huh, bitch? GOOD, 'CAUSE YOU 'BOUT TO MEET HIM!
I particularly enjoy the scarf. That was my favorite part to paint.

Looking at how good you’re painting, I have to correct that title:
May I draw Samuel L. Jackson?
😂😂😂
Day 50 comes along and it’s a picture at a weird angle nobody can find on the internet of him getting milk out of his fridge in the middle of the night
your art is so good, mad impressive
I’m humbled, thank you! It’s fun learning a new skill at a relatively old age. Old enough to be a grandpa anyway.
It’s pretty weird when someone receives a compliment and becomes humble. You deserve to be proud instead, this art is great.
💪
They’re looking better and better every day! I LOVE the scarf.
One thing I noticed is that the shading on his right (on the left side of the painting) cheek is not soft enough. It should be more of a gradient instead of a dark line, I think.
You’re absolutely right, thank you!
You’re welcome!
The scarf is beautiful, but something’s messed up on his right cheek.
I reworked that cheek multiple times, I finally gave up and called this good enough.
To be fair, the photo reference is also a bit weird. Something about the lighting and how his skin got squished by the scarf, I guess. Keep it up, your Samuels are getting better at every iteration.
Thank you! I almost didn’t go with this image because of the lighting. It’s clearly movie lighting and not natural lighting which is hard to comprehend and paint. But I thought it would be a challenge and that’s what made the decision for me.
The scarf is definitely dope! I’ve enjoyed your progress when I catch your posts!
Thank you!
Okay I’m just going to say it: I think you can paint Samuel L. Jackson.
Thank you! And yeah I can. I still can’t quite get his expressions right though. This one is closer than the others but still not quite right.
