Gary Shandling

—April, 1998
Done for ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY magazine. It was in the TV review section and they did a combined review of the 'Larry Sanders Show' and the TV adaptation of "Moby Dick" so the piece had to have both elements. Gary Shandling has a great worrying expression that would be fitting of him being harpooned like a whale. I was going for a Gericault's "Raft of Medusa" feel to the piece.
