Marilyn Monroe

Description

As the start of my 2-hr portrait practice I did someone i had a lot of my friends request and is a commonly drawn subject, Marilyn Monroe [I chose a younger reference photo rather than her weller-known modeling photos] :)

I am happy with the overall result considering its my first attempt at only putting 2hrs into the drawing and using all three of my favorite mediums; graphite, ink and charcoal.

My only critique about this work and aspect that I wanted to improve on would be the hair [my least favorite part of drawing portraits lol :XD:]

Anyways.....hope you all like it :)

On a side-note, the approximate size of the picture is 2inx3in! my smallest portrait to date! :la:

- Joe :la::coffeecup::coffeemachine:

Media Used:
Faber-Castell Graphite Pencils (H, HB, 2B, 6B)
Fine-point Sharpie Inking Pens
Primo Euro Blend Charcoal Pencils
Sketchpad 5.5inx8.5in

Time to complete:
2 hours
