As if people didn’t already know this but I’m a huge fan of exaggerated features when I paint. This is a recent one I call “The Sheriff”. 2010.

This Sherriff looks like he went to the Crenshaw district in LA to get his hat. I can only hope that his cowboy boots are made by Stacy Adams (THE shoes on the rack at the swaps there).
I love how high he’s wearing his star.
I love those big silver dollar ears too. And the sheriff certainly knows how to apply his eye makeup.
Is Barney Fife his assistant sheriff?

Good job Denny. Love the side ways eyes on all your paintings.
Your “style” is shining through. Keep them coming!

Thanks Fun Closet. This one is a favorite of mine. I think Allee is right, his ears do look a bit like silver dollars!
Barney Fife. Someone just gave me an idea.

Love the ears. It works with the eyes & brim on the hat.
