I can't disagree with you - a lot of his work seems to waver between 'energetic' and 'rushed'. I think that's why it sometimes comes across as less than perfect in the draftsmanship department.<br /><br />I know a few artists who worked that way and I guess it comes down to what the individual's priorities are, eh?leifpenghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07232334860061949895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-70761439606890457432010-10-23T10:50:10.172-04:002010-10-23T10:50:10.172-04:00Great video, funny guy!

I saw, and competed, with Neil Boyle and some the other L.A. hotshots....and was glad we weren't in the same town. Must be truthful, though, I was disappointed with Boyle's draftsmanship....it just should have been better, given his skills at composition and design and drama. He had a marvelous loose style, but failed to top it off with the sharp drawing that the eastern illustrators displayed.Charlie Allennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-91283555812956466012010-10-22T15:41:18.107-04:002010-10-22T15:41:18.107-04:00My family had the Tennessee Ernie Ford Hymn album ...My family had the Tennessee Ernie Ford Hymn album when I was a kid, and I remembered I liked looking at the album artwork wa-a-a-y more than listening to the album!!Randy Mohrnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-11131370511933138222010-10-21T07:02:07.061-04:002010-10-21T07:02:07.061-04:00Lori; thanks for your comment - I'm so glad y...Lori; thanks for your comment - I'm so glad you're enjoying this week's series on Boyle.

In all, it's more than an hour long. Neil had a great sense of humor and what was amazing is during the demo he had us laughing continually all the while painting an exquisite portrait. -TomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
