Chris from the DSC club asked me for a caricature last week.  After a few preliminary sketches whilst waiting at the airport  I have bashed this one out.  Chris is a very brainy maths professor with various published  maths books to his name.  I initially went with a big brain box, but no, that cheeky […]

My Sky Junkies Illustration for XC Mag 159

My illustration of Gerhart, the obsessed German flatlander PG pilot.

Part of Hugh Miller’s article on the Triton, GTO and Mantra 6.  The brief was to illustrate the designers the way Hugh found the essence of the gliders.  Caricatures of designers Russ Ogden of Ozone, Torsten Siegel of Gin and Phillipe Medicus of Nova.

We landed early today due to wind and possible Cbs, so a fair bit of time for sketching some past clients.  A DSC and a TV club member.  

Slowly getting through the DSC group.  Alan Horsefield, Dave Allen and now Alan Ford (and the pub dog Eric).

A quick sketch of Rob Couper done this afternoon between flights.  Rob came to Flypiedrahita first way back in the  90s Rob Couper  

Steve was an old client of ours.  After retiring form the UK police force he set up XC Paragliding Brasil which he runs with his wife Jaqueline in Governador Valadares. The bad weather yesterday enabled me to finish off this caricature of him which he requested.
