hair there

Posted by on Apr 10, 2013 in Illustration | 1 comment

I recently made a fun departure into celebrity portraits, for a potential wall mural for a hair salon. They asked for portraits of people with iconic hair that defined their era. I love doing visual anthropology, searching for image files, seeing a person’s lifetime at a glance within my tattered clipping files or on Bing. Here are some of my sketches, see if you recognize them. First person to name all 6 correctly wins a print of their favorite!
