Art Day 14

 Day 14: JFK

This first portrait of JFK was rather an incomplete, quick and simple framework. Done with charcoal, it really doesn't look like him.

The second picture, also of JFK was something completely new. I used three different colors of paper as a base for different tones of the picture, namely, hair, skin, collar, and suit. I then used charcoal over the paper to define specific features like the eyes, ears, chin, tie, and lapel. I haven't tried this method since, but I think overall, it created an interesting effect.
