Dead presidents

Googled on dead presidents and came across the wikipedia site they had a list off all the presidents. These four where listed as "killed by a gunshot". Hope you like it?

Last of the Dead Presidents...

I didn't get an answer on this question of whether or not Uncle Sam qualifies as a Dead President, so I thought I'd post another Uncle Sam,... fleecing a citizen. This one was for Playboy.

Raise your hand Abe!

This one was done for a magazine about 7 years ago.
Can not remember what the story was about.

Where's ya' Teeth Mister Pres-i-dent?

I did this for a children's book around 2001... it's a book called "Look, my tooth is loose!"
Still available on amazon.com!

This is Casey. He loves to draw, and he loves money, particularly hundred dollar bills (note the many portraits of Benjamin). He's working to make his second $100 bill, and is accepting portrait commissions (I told him that his drawings will be more lucrative than his lemonade stand). You can shoot Casey a note here, or you can e-mail me, and I'll make sure he gets it. -- David

SFG: dead presidents

Although my favorite dead president is William Henry Harrison, depicting Abraham Lincoln's assassination was, visually, much more exciting. It was a giant, ill-conceived conspiracy that eventually ended with John Wilkes Booth being tracked down and shot by Union soldiers...and Lincoln appearing on the five-dollar bill.
At a tavern on the night of the assassination, a patron allegedly heckled Booth that he'd never be the actor his father was. Booth replied, "After my appearance on stage tonight, I'll be the most famous man in America." This incident is most likely not true.

...not so dead President

Well this is my contribution to the "Dead Presidents" thread. This piece was done awhile ago (obviously) for Comedy Central (even more obvious) as a give away at a trade show where they were making a presentation. Funny thing, this was not the first time I was asked to be a counterfeiter!

Does Uncle Sam count as a dead president?

Happy Money!

I did this for a magazine a few years ago. Can't remember their title for some reason...

I always begin a portrait with my favourite part - the face... thought I would share it with you all...

Dead Prez #1

I did this for a young adult book cover two months ago. I think it's coming out in the fall or winter.
It was for Holiday House in New York.
Ghosts in the White House!
