Description

Hmmm yeah. my "art pal". He's an AMAZING PAINTER!!! I'd give you his DA link but he's not on DA :(
Annnyway-- Originally he didn't want to be drawn, but I took this shot of him and I really liked the contrast and I told him that I'd draw it on black paper and have all the shadow be black, with things that represented him in it.
So there ya go... a randomly-drawn skate, some peace signs, a paintbrush-- and yes, that's a paint palette at the bottom!

I love this! Your use of colour and shade is wonderful, and your shading has a kinda swirling feel about it, accentuated by the natural lines in his face, that sucks you into this person. I also love the way you've engraved aspects of his personality into his shadow using different symbols etched out in white. It has a wonderful graffitti look that's completely different to the rest of the image and adds something very real to the person depicted - it's like he's doodled his thoughts and ideas into the margins of himself! Wonderful work, absolutely choc-full of character and life!
