OUIL505 'Trump has small hands'

I wanted to try and illustrate another article, but thought I should do maybe a clip/video of something that happened rather than a written report. I had found this clip from beforehand when looking at the election campaign as a whole and seeing the excessiveness of it all.

I wanted to use a different material to try and see what would work best, starting with pencil then moving onto gouache. I was really liking the gouache, as the colours emphasise his horrible pinky skin and slimy personality. 


These quick illustrations led to this, which I really like. I think this painting style is something that I need to keep exploring in my work. It's eye catching and different to any other editorial illustration. This means that there is a gap in the market for work like this, so I definitely need to take this further. I'm going to keep on painting like this and find other articles that I can illustrate.
