One of two fanart pieces done recently. Sorry for the horrible quality, it was done with a camera that I can't seem to focus when the flash is off. I'll try and get a better image of it up soon.
This is Devendra Banhart, by the way. Check out his music if you haven't. He's grrrreat!
Watercolor, colored pencil, marker, and acrylic paint on illustration board. Various images found through google of Devendra Banhart were used.
Goddamn, lookin' good! Love the shadowing on his arms and neck and face. So real, but makes me think of roast meat, since the golden-brown tones are so.. 'ripe', you know? You get what I mean. (I'm sure you do, right?)
Awesome tones overall, make me think of a windowless, hot room with no air circulation and perhaps lots of smoking from a hookah. But I'm sure that's precisely the Devendra Banhart style.
New deals posted everyday, starting Black Friday and running through the holiday season! No hassles, no lines - just awesome savings on art, deviantWEAR, Premium Memberships and more!

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces.

We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.

My favorite part of this is the background, not to say there's anything wrong with the rest of it. :]]]
The whole piece looks very vintagey, but if you are to be believed, that may just be the camera.
you're welcome
