Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn for Aklasu Magazine

Grant and HepburnHere’s my illustration for an article appearing today on Aklasu Online Men’s Magazine. The article looks at the influence of classic “screwball comedies” on contemporary cinema. You can read it here: https://aklasu.co/great-screwballs-fire-emergence-neo-screwball-comedy/

My drawing is based on a scene from The Philadelphia Story (1940), starring Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn.

    1. Oops, you’re right, Bookgator, thank you! Shows what I know. In fact, I have no idea what is even going on in the movie still this drawing is based on.

      1. I’m not a huge old movie fan, but I recommend seeing A Philadelphia Story. It’s cute.

    1. Grazie Marco, although I must say I’m personally not all that satisfied with this one. I set out with the idea of doing something vaguely Al Hirschfeld-esque, but ended up with a new appreciation of just how difficult a style that is.
