Artist Danny Roberts Re interpreted sketch of scarlett barry self portrait of her holding a piece of glass with a tiger on it

Portrait

The Girl and the Tiger

Ok so i just found this old sketch i just had to post! I seriously completely forgot about it. I drew it like 3 or 4 years ago, but there is something about it i really like. I remember i was web surfing on Myspace or Flickr… i came across this self-portrait that Scarlett Barry had done, and it was fun looking, the next thing i knew, i was sketching on the nearest piece of paper, and this was born. I hope you like it ;) P.S. I know i said this on the post earlier today, but just a reminder ;) I have been having trouble keeping up on Formspring, emails, etc. so what i thought could help is if my brother (who helps me alot) & i did a video question and answer. So if you want to post on the comment part below questions for me or my brother or even both of us and we will try to make a video for you all :)

David T. Roberts – Damien T. Wallace

Happy Monday friends! How have you been? I’ve been a little under the weather lately. Been feeling pretty sick and exhausted… not sure what’s up.. But on the bright side, i’ve been laying low and watching a lot of old movies. Like I watched, for the first time, “White Christmas” and “Holiday Inn” which were mind blowing good! I mean, the actors of those days could sing and dance. It’s mesmorizing! Like i’ve said before, Fred Astaire is my hero. He is amazing. :) Also, watched the Sound of Music today! I wish they still made movies like those great old movies…. Well, the drawing today is of my brother David Roberts that i drew about 3 years ago. :) My brother is my best friend, and has been incredible in helping me with business and emails, some of you have had the pleasure of meeting him. So i thought i would post about him :) He also is a contributor with me, Stacy Dupree, Cat Khan (Knightcat), Geri Hirsch, Alice Baxley & Ryan Baxley on “The Dream Walking Society” P.S. If you’re wondering about why the name “Damien T. Wallace” is up in the title, that is my brother’s random nickname… :)

Save a Deer By Helping a Bunny

Hello, hello my friends! Well, just finished working and about to head down to Pasadena to see the lovely Audrey Tautou preform in “Coco Chanel” with Fashion is Poison and alot of other bloggers. Should be really fun! I’m really excited! Today’s drawing of my friend, the beautiful, kind, and lovely Julia Frakes of the blog Bunny Bisous. She asked me if I would do a painting for her for a benefit for animals that she is working with. When i thought about painting Julia, with an animal, and for a good cause… I said yes instantly! I have a Video of the painting that is coming soon… i think it’s the best one yet! ;) As for info on the benefit, i thought i would quote Julia on it. :)

"While I cannot reveal too many details quite yet, one of my pet holiday projects is an upcoming benefit that I am co-chairing with designer Rachel Antonoff to raise awareness about animal cruelty as manifested on two fronts: barbaric factory farms (with funds proffered to Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary) and merciless puppy mills (to benefit Maddie's Fund). Scheduled to betide in a magnificent historical Manhattan haunt this mid-December, a killer hosting committee will preside over a silent art auction featuring works created especially in a forest and fauna theme [including the original painting above] by the likes of Kime Buzzelli and Danny Roberts alongside special musical performances by fun., Steel Train, and other sublime surprise guests. " - Julia Frakes
