This is a portrait of actor Danny Trejo for The Big Issue. They asked for him to be painted in Chicano style, which is a great opportunity for technicolour doodling.

As the deadline was very short I went straight to painting with Acrylic, using the initial outline as a sketch stage.

Needless to say Danny Trejo's face is a gift for this kind of portrait.


And here's the finished spread. The Art Director was Adriana Soares.
