“Lady In The Dark Dress” - Illustration by Sam SprattTwo of my many artsy New Year’s resolutions were to do more full-body portraits (as opposed to my usual chest-up) and to imagine up design elements I normally wouldn’t put much thought into — in this case, a dress.

Halloween Portrait Contest Winner - Illustration By Sam Spratt The winner of my Zombie contest, Mike, turned out to be an illustrator himself and I felt it would be nice to wiggle that in somewhere — so after I had done the base sketch, I had him create a line dra wing in his adorably awesome cartoon style in the same pose, then made it into his t-shirt. HERE is the original sketch of mine with his quick line-drawing mocked-up on top of it.

Sam Spratt’s Halloween Portrait Contest! In brief: Likes and Reblogs of this image are each entries in the contest to win a portrait of you drawn by me. In slightly less brief:  To those new to this, that means that should you be the random winner, I would draw a portrait of your beautiful face (or someone’s face you care about)… as a horrifically ugly, flesh-eating, undead walker-face. It’s like winning the lottery! (except not at all like that…) That said, it is the best emotional preparation possible should you fall victim to the zombie apocalypse and run (walk slowly) across a mirror in the wreckage of your once beautiful town. (I will also draw you as anything halloween/horror themed, but the undead are a favorite). Doing each of the following counts as an entry: Facebook: Comment and/or Share this image >HERE< Tumblr: Like and/or Reblog this image Twitter: Following @samspratt and tweeting “Entering to win a portrait of myself drawn as the undead by @samspratt ! http://on.fb.me/RPNehj ” Contest closes on Sunday Oct. 28th at midnight EST PS Yes, that’s a drawing of The Walking Dead’s Rick Grimes as a Walker

“American Royalty” - Illustrations by Sam Spratt commissioned by Childish Gambino Limited Edition Prints Available: royalty.samspratt.com So, I’m pretty excited to finally share with you my full project with Actor/Writer/Rapper Donald Glover. What began as cover art for his last mixtape “Royalty” evolved into a series of Rockwell-esque vignettes on Americana meant to highlight the side of hip-hop that tends to take a back seat to “money, cars, and jewelry” – where you come from. The collection of 10 illustrations cover a wide-spectrum of the little moments – the struggles, the simple pleasures, the risks, the irony, the humor, the hopes, and the realities of the American life that maybe isn’t quite so cookie cutter. For me, this was a rare privilege to both work with an insanely talented person as well as learn an IMMENSE amount in the process of creating scenes completely outside of my bubble. All of these are available as extremely limited edition, signed, numbered, archival art prints at royalty.samspratt.com and a video interview on the project with Complex/Masked Gorilla is here. A huge thanks to Funfere Koroye, who assisted and modelled for me on “Summer” and “Royalty”
