Interesting how you gave such a “strong” looking man just a 1lb weight to lift. If it wasn’t for that, it reminds me of a friend I have that gets upset if I forget that he can bench press 315 lbs.
this man is… is… Strong like Bull!! No??? He he he he! SOOOOO cool and retro! I love the filter on this! It has that delicious old school look that I love so much. I really, really like this illustration. This looks like one of those fantastic illustrations that would have been used in on a detergent box in like the 1950’s or 60. It’s just beautiful art. Great work once again Melinda!
Thanks so much, Vanessa! You’re so kind! — It’s funny that you say detergent. I’d wondered after I finished the illustration, if I should have put a roll of paper towel in his hand! haha – He kind of looks like Brawny, I suppose!

I bet those weights are made of foam too.
Haha. The texture looks so much fun! Nice. I see you have re-vamped the blog. And it looks good:)
well he is quite masculine…. and strong!
Love your work!
Wonderful illustration! Great concept! I love it.
What a man!! Love it!
