Rodin

Sometimes I just want to try out some new brushes or pens so I pick an image that speaks to me. This is supposed to be Rodin, but it looks more like Rasputin or Hugh Jackman, so a great portrait it is not. However I did learn how to use the new materials. Also of note in this piece is the use of sandpaper to achieve the texture in the background and in some of the beard.

This other piece was done very quickly as well, again, just to try out the 2 brushes I just purchased which are included in the picture.This image is of George Frederick Watts.
