Chris Farley (Artist Proof)

I worked with Chris on Saturday Night Live for five years, and he was a gifted comedian. The only time I almost broke character was when I was one of the judges in the Chippendales sketch that he was in. I can’t remember ever not seeing sweat streaming down his face. While painting Chris, I kept getting flooded with memories of his hilarious SNL performances and the behind the scenes moments that made him who he was. Time painting: 27 hours across five different cities.
