Present Project

Paul Gascoigne Tribute Drawings

This is a project I am currently working on.    

Recently Paul Gascoigne has been trying to get his life back on track and make a new start, which I believe he is doing very well. Paul Gascoigne's recent successes gave me some inspiration.

I came up with idea of creating 3 large pencil portrait tributes dedicated to Paul Gascoigne. The first portrait will portray Gascoigne's new and improved image. (A Year of Change - Focused with a Smile - A new Age). The second portrait will show how Paul's image has changed over many years. (Paul Gascoigne - "The Changing Face: Through the Ages"). The third portrait will be a tribute to Gascoigne's recent Sports Book of the Year Success.

After getting basic plans together I got in contact with Paul's manager Andy Billingham, who seemed very interested in my plans, this I was very surprised with. After agreeing that I would complete the tribute portraits,  he sent me recent photos of Paul so I could create detailed plans.

I am now about to begin the portraits and hopefully all goes well and Andy approves them. Once hopefully approved, you could be seeing them for sale on Paul's official website in the near future.

The Gascoigne projects are coming along nicely and will be completed in the very near future, lets just hope Paul and Andy like them !

Updates will appear as things progress.
