Pop icon!

Today i've got to share my latest creation with you. It's a painting i've done in my art class for a little competition they are holding. They said that the painting had to be a relatively famous portrait but you had to "substitute" his or her face with yours.....
I had a great time painting it,althought at first I didn't want to participate (I was afraid of what would come out of it!!!) I finally decided to participate (Actually,the teacher didn't give me an option) and I went on to choose the portrait I would use for this project. I ended up choosing Andrew Warhols' portrait of Michael Jackson (Don't ask me why because i've got no idea ) It was hard trying to maintain the "Michael Jackson look" while trying to make him look like me, but I finally more or less achived it.
If you don't know the actual portrait here it is:

 

I'm sure you all know who Andrew Warhol is because he is the "father" of pop art and a very famous american artist.

Anyway, I've turned myself into Michael Jackson. I might not sing or dance as well as he did but I could also be a pop icon ;) Don't believe me??? Haha well here's the proof:

 

 

 

Photo of the week

Apart from my doodles and paintings I also love photography and I have a few pictures I've taken all around the world in my travels with my family. I will be posting one every week! Hope you enjoy them :)
I'll start with my photograph of the bridge of sighs, in Venice. I went to the famous,romantic and wet city last year and had a great time. It's a pitty to think that scientists say that in a few hundred years the city might "drown"....
Anyway, I love this photo because of the feeling of being squeezed between the buildings and because it shows the spirit of Venice. I chose to put it in black & white because I think it gives the photograph a nice dramatic effect.

 

Elephant OBSESSION!

Exactly,that's what I have!!!! I absolutely adore these majestic,humangeous and intelligent creatures,being elephants one of my symbols of identity. If you where to get all of my drawings,doodles,paintings etc. more than 30% would have an elephant as the main subject.
Being that said, I'll put here two I'm especially fond of-

1.I call this the Psychodellic elephant,and it´s one of my personal favourites.It's a watercolor and i've already done a few others with other colors tht i've given to friends and family and the outcome was just as satisfactory.

 2.This is a painting I did for a friend.It was her birthday present and it's actually a vey close replica of an already existing artwork from an artist whose name I don't know.
