portrait 4: odin
pencil
odin is considered the "chief" god in norse mythology. he represents wisdom, war, battle, death, magic, poetry, prophecy, victory, and the hunt. but you may know him as mr. wednesday from neil gaimen's american gods.

portrait 3: diane arbus
pencil and, um, tin foil.
diane arbus is a photographer my sister really got me into. she was renowned for capturing the "weird" parts of life, as well as...erm...offing herself. here's the reference picture i used:
as you can see, i didn't quite capture her artistic apathy, or even the slightly drunken tilt of her head. in fact, im not quite happy with this one at all.
actually, i like the eye.
here are some of her photographs:
portrait 2: grace jones
pencil and charcoal
not really too thrilled about this one, but i succesfully drew my first gun!
portrait 1: pink
pencil and pink marker
looks nothing like pink, really, but its a good start considering i've never done a "realistic" portrait before...
plus, has anyone seen this frikken grammy preformance? incredible.
