Portrait of an Artist

[r_vecchio]

So everybody knows I'm artistic, right? I hardly even have to say it. I'm not into art and I don't know much about art but, you know, when you're blessed with a gift like I am you just can't help but use it sometimes.

Anyway, I did a self portrait online a little while back and thought it was my duty to share it with you all. I think it's...well, I think it will touch some of you out there.





I suspect you're speechless. Just look at it, feel it. The badge, the color, see how I made one of my eyes hazel? The swirl of my ear, the pink kissable lips... I welcome comments and positive feedback but no constructive criticism, thank you.

Because I was bored the artiste in me wasn't satisfied after that, it made me do another one. And because I wanted to experiment with hair it chose Asher. Behold. Again.





I know those of you who really appreciate art at its purest will be angry and sad but: I don't accept requests. I'm sorry.

It's hardly eavesdropping... He's Gary Oldman, who, y'know, is a good-looking guy too. If anything, Asher should be flattered, right? Yeah. Though, he's not really the flattering type.

Oh, yeah, Gary Oldman's a good-looking guy. Asher should not be giving you a hard time if that's who he thinks you made him look like.

Your art reminds me of a cross between those Hirschfeld caricatures and some kind of modern art. I don't know much about art.

Not on purpose though... Huh, I like that description. You've got a good eye, Will.

Thanks! I don't get told that very often.
