Johan Cruijff Caricature

in caricature •  7 years ago 

Hello Steemers!!!

Well, I am back ,... Finally I might add!!! I have been busy lately, mixed with a loss in creativity ... I guess its normal to have ebbs and flows when it comes to the creative vibe. I am still learning to find new ways to tilt myself over an ebb when it arrives, but I have to confess it is not always easy. I guess its is just a matter of forcing a way though it. :)

But it is coming back, slowly but surely, and so I wanted to make a caricature of a Football Legend who, sadly, passed away last year.

This person, along with the rest of that team, changed Football forever, introducing a new aproach to the game unknown until then: Interchanging positions, the keeper being the sweeper close to the defenders, high pressing and full attack, always... I am talking about AFC Ajax and Holland of the 70ies, with its absolute leader,... Johan Cruijff!

Our Spanish friends will remember him as well, in particular the Catalans hahahaha.

Back to the drawing, I started as Always with a pencil sketch...

The next step is the inking ... I found some new brushes for that, and I have to say that I am very happy with them!!!

For the coloring I used these Tombow brushes, which I am slowly Learning to use better and better (luckily) ;)

Hope you like the drawing,...

Rust zacht Johan
