Your Face

Crikey! I really can't explain how I've missed this up until now. Splendid.

By Bill Plympton

Yara (Face 318)

Yara - here by popular demand.

That was all over a little too quickly so I'll move on to the name with the next highest number of votes. If you're called Katie/Kate expect to see your portrait appearing here over the next few weeks.

Kylie (Face 317)

The votes have been counted and it would seem Yara is the most popular name around here. A most extraordinary result as I only have one face in my inbox that goes by this most wonderful of names. I guess it makes things a whole lot easier for me with just a single portrait to draw.

Merry Christmas

Jeni (Face 316)

Last face before I count the votes.

Estefania (Face 315)

While we wait for the last few votes to trickle in.

Vote

Now that the last Brooke has been uploaded I'm going to open up the next name for debate. leave a comment on this post to vote for the next name I pick out from my inbox. In the event of a draw (or more likely - no votes at all) I'll carry on randomly choosing.

Adequate Adventures

I can't promise any more religious insight than this, but if you crave more of my stupid attempts at humour, visit Adequate Adventures. Upon arriving there you will also find yourself in the somewhat safer hands of a gentleman with his creative fingers in so many pies that it's probably impossible to feast on one that hasn't been tainted by his grubby northern mitts - Pincer Movement.

Sabrina (Face 306)

I guess this is what would happen if it was our hair that went to get us cut instead of the other way round.

A little late for Halloween

Charlie (Face 300)

The Blog that keeps on giving... Charlie gets the everlasting memory of a night with Tom Selleck without having to expose herself to that most powerful and dangerous of moustaches.

Aaron, Kat & Jason & ... (Faces 283 - 296) - GIGGLE PARTY

I'm going to try to make time to kick-start this blog next week but in an effort to meet this month's targets and relieve myself of what was looking like a less than positive performance review for September, I offer you this.

Nothing I can say is going to convey the dangerously high quantities of joy that you will experience listening to Giggle Party.

Go now and embrace them with open arms, open ears and open purses:

Forecast

There's been a bit of a face drought around here due to my workload getting a little crazy these last few weeks. It looks set to continue for a little longer but have patience and normal service will resume soon enough.

Much love,
Damien

Lynda (Face 269)

I've got no words to express my excitement about this one. Gosh! I love the internet. I got a message and photo from Lynda Hayes who's voice is permanently ingrained in my mind.

Watching/listening to this makes me wonder how, despite my increased spending power compared to that I had when I was five, I have let my collection of toys dwindle to almost nothing...

Benjamin (Face 265)

Meet my brother.

I decided for this portrait I wouldn't add any animals or facial hair as I wanted to capture his true likeness - As you can probably tell, these days he makes his living as some kind of eye magician.
