Illustration Friday Topic: Fearless

May 8, 2010· Category :Illustrations· tags : , , · No Comments

This week’s Illustration Friday topic was fearless. When I think of fearless, I think of a daredevil like Evel Knievel. Besides, I had a sketch for this guy on my desk that I’d been meaning to work on. I probably should have done a more action pose, but I guess this will have to do for this week. Enjoy!

I ended up closing my StockXpert account to pull my images from Thinkstock, so I guess these will be the last earnings from there.
