“Don't you dare!”

I think that reflects Donald's attitude on some days.

Donald Duck and I

I think this special bond between me and Donald Duck can't really be tied to any particular biographical detail about me. It's more a combination of the character's design and story that made him so appealing to me to work with.

Donald Duck, Homer Simpson

The advantage of my work reaching into the realm of contemporary art is that I can ask questions there that I probably wouldn't be allowed to in the industry. Like for example: does Donald Duck sometimes feel the same way about one of his nephews as Homer Simpson does about his son Bart?

This picture can't really be misunderstood, because I think it is obvious, but I'm including it anyway just to be on the safe side: This is satire, it is a satirical allusion to the physical father-son conflicts between Homer and Bart Simpson. And the interesting thing is that it feels – of course – wrong to see Donald doing this. Although I think Donald is perfectly capable of sometimes feeling like "attacking" one of his nephews, but never actually doing it.

Don't be alarmed!

The teeth are brushed, the pencils are sharpened, the whole thing can begin now. And please don't be alarmed by Donald Duck's strange appearance here, he's just happy as a wolf at the breakfast table with ten sheep visiting.

“Chirp!”

Here I wanted to try out what Donald Duck would look like as a songbird. Chirping instead of quacking, as a side effect.

By the way, I have used a different line drawing technique here, only very roughly, it is not a final clean-up drawing, but I am happy with the result. I normally prefer highly pigmented dark pencils to regular inking tools, but at the moment I am working on something that requires rich and clear black lines, my usual lines would be too sketchy for that.

Facial Expresso Expression

Apropos facial espresso (see posting from June 17th), here is the facial espresso expression.

I suffer from André Franquin syndrome

So, measuring my freehand Donald usually leads to the result that I end up with the elongated forms of Andre Franquin.

Facial Espresso

'Facial Espresso' (2024), Florian Satzinger.
There's not much else to say other than that I just wanted to try it out. I intentionally spilled the espresso on Donald's face, purely for effect.

Somehow wrong

A Donald Duck that deviates greatly from the usual design and features a kind of facial expression machine.

Mister Duck Fantastic

My Donald Duck adventure is about to begin, so it doesn't hurt to do a few stretches with the main character. I intentionally kept the drawing itself very rough in order to keep the line quality as close as possible to the preliminary drawing.

... And The Brain

This is probably my favorite piece I've done of 'The Brain'.

Freely adapted from Pino Pascali

Being the huge Pino Pascali (1935 - 1968) fan that I am, the 'Vedova Blu' got me to do this one here, recently.

I consider these works of mine as pop-art in reverse. I take something purely high-brow and transmute it into a mass culture thing.
