I was invited to participate in a project celebrating Harvey Pekar's 70th. 95 artists submitted Harvey portraits, and I am so honored to have been one of them!
Check out the amazing collection.... oh, and my Harvey Head is the second from the bottom :)
The collection is pretty darn awesome. The range of styles is great and there are some big names in there as well as some relatively unknowns and completely unknowns (i.e. yours truly)
Here are a few of my favorites (click on the names to visit their websites):
Sean Pryor
This is hilarious because Harvey's birthday cake was doughnut shaped and was filled with doughnuts... Harvey kept getting up from the chair where he was perched all night to grab some
Adam Roth (I am having a hard time finding a link to post... help? Anyone?)
I loooove this, the expression is perfect!
Steve Chanks
This may be my favorite one... the movement, the colors, the expression ... everything! awesome...
Tom Galambos Doesn't really have a website, so link is to an interview

Box Brown (a.k.a. Brian Brown)

Go check out the rest of the collection! Which are your favorites?
