Michael Jackson (R.I.P.)


This drawing of the king is my way of saying good bye, and it was an HONOUR! I can't say how sad and hurt i am about the world losing one of the most beautiful individuals god has ever made! He brought so many people joy. EVEN THOUGH SO MANY TRIED TO BRING HIM DOWN! His whole life was spent trying to make other people happy. with his music, personal time, his home was constructed to make children happy. And we take the fact that he loved kids, flipped it, and called him a monster! but now that he's gone we see him for what he really was. I hate that we have to lose someone to truly see there worth. I couldn't see Michael Jackson dying I always thought he would live forever. Even now it hasn't really hit me yet. I hope it never hits me! i want to forever think of him as alive and well. in closing, i love you M.J. and i always will!

SICKNESS!!!!

Ok I am going to give you more than praise on this one, I am going to give you some constructive feed back, take it or leave it, your call bro. :)

I personally would have made his hands bigger. Only because that guys has some monsterous hands(at least in comparison to his skinny body. I like the whole body exageration though, looks super nice, and the lighting is perfect, keep up the good work man!!

Absolutely beautiful art (and post). This is absolutely amazing. I completely relate to being heartbroken over the passing of the King. I am hurting so much right now and also created an artistic project to say good-bye -- but this is absolutely beautiful. Excellent work :)

Viagra Pharmacy said...

I really stayed so impacted with your design, specially by the facial details, I mean, it's like a photo of Michael Jackson. Yous should be so proud of your talent to designs, because it's uncommon.

Cialis Online said...

Dude I would like to know what your secrets are, or at least which kind of effects are you using to achieve this, I mean, this design is completely astounding.
