Awake My Soul - Jared Leto

_{Do not use in any way without my written permission!}


Just a very quick watercolour painting of awesome Jared Leto, actor and singer of my favourite band 30 Seconds to Mars.

Yesterday I nearly exploded because I had all this artistic energy in me but I couldn't find a suitable picture to draw of Lee Pace, who I really really REALLY (!!!) wanted to draw. So, instead, I chose a picture I had saved on my computer from Jared Leto. I just ... HAD TO DRAW SOMETHING! Somewhere I read that the definition of an addiction is the craving of the substance and the withdrawal symptoms if you don't get it. So, I guess, I'm addicted to making art. ... I think this is my 15th drawing of him ...

Anyway. I think it turned out OK. Could have turned out worse, but I think I'm making (slow) progress with watercolours. I also used some white charcoal here, which I'm glad I did because I like it better now. Also, it's not in my usual style but I thought HELPIDON'TKNOWWHATTODOIHAVETODRAAAAAAW!!!! what the heck, lets try something different. But, as always, it looks better in real life.

Size: slightly smaller than DIN A4
Materials:
Paper
Watercolours (blues and grey)
White charcoal
F pencil and kneadable eraser
The reference picture is from Kurt Iswarienko, I think.
The titel is from a song by Mumford and Sons.

Comments and critiques are very much appreciated .
