A Celebrity...

A celebrity is a person who works hard all his life to become well known, then wears dark glasses to avoid being recognized. ~Fred Allen

    This is a great portrait of MJ, Aarti! And I love how you made the background black so that his hair almost disappears(must be a term for that!?) Great effect!

    Yes..I actually made a mix of charcoal and watercolour to complete his hair and face...not very sure of the term..somehow I feel use of black in the background actually simplifies the sketch and highlights the face.

    Aarti,

    Very nice charcoal drawing and an excellent likeness of Michael Jackson.
