Courtroom sketches

Dude at bottom right is from Metaluna, I think.

If you could get in touch with a courtroom sketch artist and get them to draw a picture of you and your family in a courtroom setting in a courtroom sketch style, that might make a good birthday/anniversary present.

(is this a genuine courtroom sketch? was this the standard style for courtroom sketches in mid-1970s California? I know the apple thing did happen, but is this a courtroom sketch or an illustration from somewhere else?)

Goddamm, did the artist get to court only to realize he had grabbed his daughter's neon sidewalk pastels by mistake?

The flag is melting, the jurors' faces are literally melting and that big computer thing from TRON has opened up under the judge's bench. I'd be looking like John E. too.

Throbbing. The flag is throbbing.

haha, yeah. More here: http://www.wral.com/news/local/politics/image_gallery/11124134/

I kinda dig she did this radioactive color crazy like fauve thing— like breasts-face juror here:

I don't know if I've been watching too much Better Call Saul or not, but his resemblance to Michael McKean is becoming more apparent.

2008:
Heather Mills doused Paul McCartney’s lawyer, Fiona Shackleton — or so it would seem. The press, including the artist, was barred and could not see it.

PS Nice comparison of the 3 Whitey Bulger sketches.

Gotta say my favorite's the last (again, by Christine Cornell)-- it's not just the psychedelic colors, but those expressive faces! Conveying character & drama.

I just remembered I actually emailed the sketch artist of that Robin Thicke one upthread to ask how much, and I guess it was some high-three-figure number and I never pulled the trigger. One day it will grace my office.

xps
not many courtroom artists are Toulouse Lautrec, but that's just taking the piss!
