A man who died

Description

For :iconclub-tutu:'s Nov 2011 contest, to draw the characters in the style of a famous artist or artwork. I tried to do a portrait of Drosselmeyer as if it were one of Van Gogh's self-portraits. I fiddled with the colors a lot, trying to get it closer to the look of Van Gogh's paintings, but it doesn't quite get there IMO. I guess that's why his work is hanging in museums and mine is posted on Deviantart. :D In retrospect, the Starry Night-esque blue swirls are probably too soothing. In my head this looked a lot creepier.

His eyes look much friendlier than usual if you were going for a creepy style, but it does look very Van Gogh!
