547 years Michelangelo today!

For me, the line between seriousness and humor is often thin.
That is why I also want to place a funny commemoration of the 547th birth of Michelangelo today (born March 6, 1475).
With his Moses beside him! Two beautiful character heads, those two!

I made these caricatures a long time ago. But I just colored them in on my computer last week.

Michelangelo solo.

Moses solo.

Sketch of Moses.
On a photocopy of my Grace Jones caricature, as you may have noticed. :-) (Still with short neck, later modified).

The sketch sheet now folded to try out a wider mouth with a thicker lower lip.
Grace Jones still shines through it slightly.

And to finish, a joke about Michelangelo that appeared on our tear-off calendar

Worried Parents! :-)
