30 minute portraits


I was testing out my new pen that my dad gave me, and I came up with the idea to do a ton of portraits. The idea was to just rattle them off based on the first picture In front of me. I gave myself 30 minutes for each one. First is Malcolm Mcdowell Second, Ryuichi Sakamoto Third, Jean Pierre Leaud and fourth Ringo Starr

The main problems I ran into with these were no.1, the pen blots up sometimes so that's why there are a few stray dark spots, and second I got picky with my portrait selection (which went against the original battle plan) I remember at one point it took at least a half hour just to pick out a picture to draw from.

I have a Shane Macgowan portrait lying in waiting but I'll post that after I finish at least three more.
I've been so busy with different art projects from figure drawing homework, blog submissions, and pages of my graphic novel.. But maybe I'll draw a few tonight.
