Artist's summary: sketch from film "The Hound of the Baskervilles" 2002

Reccer's comments: Lovely, evocative sketches of scenes from the 2002 version of The Hound of the Baskervilles. I'm particularly taken with this joint portrait (sketch 29) and its subtle tension between the two men: Holmes' assured confidence front-and-center, while Watson, measured in his discontent, is partially clipped by the frame. There are also two nice individual portraits: Richard Roxburgh's Holmes with his cat-has-the-canary smile, and Hart's windblown Watson on the Tor (sketch 28).

The Roxburgh sketches are collected within the artist's multi-adaptation Sherlock Holmes gallery (which includes BBC, ACD, Granada, and a very nice but easy-to-miss Study in Emerald). I particularly recommend the Roxburgh sketches, of course, but there are other things to enjoy in the collection, as well.
