"Jim Morrison," by Dayna Winters. |
For face 18, I chose Jim Morrison, the lead singer of The Doors, for my subject. All I could think about was the song "Riders on the Storm," as I sketched this drawing. Jim has a sharp, bold jaw and I had a bit of a struggle getting it just right. In fact, I still think his chin is a little off in the drawing, but other than that I'm very happy with the outcome. I think I did a relatively good job capturing the piercing look in his eyes (although I notice I'm still having issues with right eye emphasis in all of my drawings - and I have no idea why I keep doing it). Interestingly enough, I find that I don't even really see the right eye emphasis issue until I photograph the art - it's weird.
I had a lot of fun drawing this piece, and wouldn't mind doing it again in some other medium or a similar medium.
