"Re-Van Gogh"

This is an interesting piece and not something I would normally do. When I look at this colored pencil drawing I see a funny looking man who seems to be pondering something as he looks off into the distance. The texture which is captured through the colors seem to give him an extra personality and a funky presents, yet the way the lines all flow together give this piece a relaxing mood, almost as if it is melting. That's what I see anyway; it's an interesting piece for sure

 

This is a re-creation of Van Gogh's painting which I made to learn from his techniques and color balance. I aimed to capture the look of paint with colored pencil.
