Description Ink drawing based on a picture of the late great Andy Kaufman. I am old enough to have seen much of his work when it was happening. The specials, the SNL appearances, his staged fight on David Letterman. His was an aggravating genius that's for sure. I actually was watching the show "Fridays" when he threw water at Michael Richards (pre-Seinfeld). I was in grade school.

Sad loss.

Anyway, I don't personally think this looks like him much. I mean, you could probably guess it was him....sideburns and hairdo and all...comments welcome.

Great work, love all the lines in the hair, it's like a wood cut or Robert Crumb cartoon.

Luv andy ( and miss him too)
Remember him wrestling women?
. . . and the Mighty Mouse bits?

When I heard about his premature death. . . I thought it was one of his gags

Exactly. He always kept us off balance. I can't even hear the words "Memphis Tennessee" without hearing him mocking the wrestling fans there...lol
