Work In Progress: Fidel

I started on this just as an exercise but it slowly developed into an illustration. So I figured I’d just continue. I just wish I would’ve started it on different paper.

This is drawn entirely in ball point pen. This illo is also different. Different in that I haven’t spent an extended amount of time on an illustration in years (but should more often). I put in at least an hour a day on this. Sometimes 2. Not sure where it’s going exactly but I’m loving the process. Since I don’t know when it’ll be finished, I figured I’d post the work in progress.

For those of you whom are passionate about politics, this is not political; nor does it have to do with any of my beliefs. It’s simply me just practicing my craft. I came across a great photo, noticed all the values (i.e. shadows, lights) and I just had to draw them and interpret the image my way. That’s it.
