Nicolas Cage. Yeah. Done as a "welcome home" present for my husband after a freelance trip.
Watching Nicolas Cage movies have been a fun date night activity for us since we started dating.
Graphite pencil, graphite dust, and carbon dust on watercolor paper.
This was my first try using dust + brush technique - similar to medical illustration - to achieve a softer look.
It looks a little off to me, but my husband was impressed and happy - it's the thought that counts, right?
Portrait of Bob is a commissioned portrait for a friend of her father. It was reproduced and given to all the siblings as a birthday present.
Graphite on bristol.
