- Marilyn Monroe -

Finally the drawing from the poll earlier this year is completed, the winner miss Marilyn Monroe.
I must say I am not completely happy with the drawing. I worked from a rather small and unclear photo, as it's hard to find big clear pictures of her.
This made it hard to get the details right. The shading was very heavy on her so as it progressed I tried to lighten it up, which I think shows. It doesn't look as realistic as I was aiming for.
I found a very nice photo of her recently - as I tried to find out how to do her hair - that I really liked, which means I might do another drawing of her.
Made with soft charcoal.
