Inspiration Avenue - Audrey Hepburn




These are my submissions for this week's Inspiration Avenue topic.  Following on from my last post I wanted to continue trying different approaches, so I went for portraits done in charcoal, which is completely new territory for me!  These are referenced from photographs I found online.  Pretty much every photograph taken of Audrey Hepburn is amazing, I couldn't believe my eyes.  This is the first time I've sat down and spent time looking through photo galleries of her.  Even ones where she looks like she's just hanging around waiting to go on set are stunning.  I want to draw another one (it's been fun working with charcoal), but I'm too sleepy!

I've been a little lax this week keeping up with everyone's blogs, but I will make time this weekend.  I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone's been up to!
