Sketchin’ 33

A few days back I did a Mel Gibson Mad Max -from The Road Warrior aka Mad Max 2– sketch and…

…doing that one illustration didn’t scratch the itch.  Not entirely.

So…[image error]I know many people today can’t stomach Mel Gibson and, frankly, I can’t argue the point.  What he did, though it was an awful long time ago, was nonetheless nasty as hell.  Clearly Mr. Gibson was in a dark place fueled by what appears to be heavy drinking and his actions and statements are both hard to comprehend and even harder to forgive.

For me, I knew and loved much of Mr. Gibson’s work prior to his melt-down and the work he did before that moment, especially in The Road Warrior/Mad Max 2, was terrific stuff.

I suppose this is a case where I’ve divorced the work from the artist themselves, because even I have a hard time comprehending the things he did.
