Portrait of artist JRFortson (United States)
Added on Aug. 27, 2009 16:26
Pencil



This is dedicated to our dear friends Lanka (Svetlana) and Missi (Kati), who both love Depeche Mode!

They BOTH surprised me and drew great drawings of my son "Andrew Belle" (Ten Out of Tenn) recently, so I wanted to return the favor and draw something for them! :grin:

 Luthien - 28/08/09, 01:14 reply
I´m not drawing anything... The right inspiration is missing :grin: :guffaw: It might also be that my motivation descended to the cellar `cause your pictures are getting better and better and this makes me jealous... :D :D :D :D Just joking... But I still can´t believe what you are able to accomplish after only 10 months of practice!! Life can be so unfair... :D :D :hammer: :hammer: :hammer: :guffaw: :guffaw: :thumbup: :thumbup: :hug: :hug: :kiss:

 JRFortson - 28/08/09, 17:20 reply
:oO: :guffaw: I am inspired by photos MORE than the subject. Since you seem to like my stuff, you may want to pay particular attention to my next few? I'm posting Robert Downey Jr tomorrow, but after that I'm doing a really cool photo of your boy Jared Leto I came across. It's an up-angle close up. Very cool eyes I think I can capture well too. :ok: Unfair? I feel it unfair I have not discovered this love for drawing sooner! :laugh: :grin: :hi: :blowkiss:

 Luthien - 28/08/09, 19:16 reply
Yes that´s true, photos are more inspiring than the subjects/objects themselves... :thumbup: What did you write?! You gonna draw JAREEEEEEED???!!! OMFG, you gonna kill me!! :oO: :oO: :hammer: :hammer: :hammer: :hammer: I´m sure you can capture him in his full beauty.... :*D: :*D: :*D: So I´m waiting impatiently for the pic to come... aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :blowkiss:

 JRFortson - 28/08/09, 19:46 reply
:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:As you know, I focus on eyes, and not only does he have unique eyes, but this photo is exactly what I look for in ANY photo, as for contrast and tonal values. I will finish him b4 weekend is over, but finishing Downey tonight. See Anita, life is NOT unfair, now you have something to look forward to? :laugh: :grin: :hi: :blowkiss:

 Luthien - 28/08/09, 22:24 reply
:laugh: YES I know you focus on eyes... It´s NOT the only unique thing about him, NOT AT ALL but let me say it´s the most "catching" part of him... When I ask people "Do you know Jared Leto?!" Most of them say "NO" and when I start explaining, in which films he acts or what kind of music he plays, anybody says " Ah, the guy with these great blue eyes!" :D :D Okay I cancel my statement and say "Life is oh so beautiful!!" :guffaw: Can´t wait to see the result!!! *xD *xD *xD *xD :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :hi:

 JRFortson - 29/08/09, 06:41 reply
It's not huh only unique feature? Remember, I only draw from the neck UP :oO: :laugh: I started it tonight, will finish tomorrow and post Sunday morning. Btw, I must say that being from Germany, your English is PERFECT!!! Grammar, comas, quotes, etc :clap: Maybe I should throw you some "slang"? :laugh: I wish I could speak 2 languages. It's wild to have friends here from so many countries that speak SO many languages, yet we all have drawing celebs in common. So glad I found this site :ok: Talk atcha later :grin: :hi: :blowkiss:

 Luthien - 29/08/09, 20:32 reply
ERM??? :oO: :oO: :oO: Don´t mind me! I don´t know what other features YOU were thinking of... :guffaw: MY thoughts were innocent! 8-) I´m curious about it! Thanks for your compliment... I always try to improve my English. I also learnt French, Spanish and Italian in school but unfortunately I´ve forgotten most of it... :/ Hey I´d appreciate to get some "slang" :D And as I read in your profile you`re of Irish descent?! WOW, I´m so in love with Ireland!! :love:

 JRFortson - 30/08/09, 00:04 reply
:roll: I was talking about his six-pack abs of course :ok: :laugh: Geeeeeez 5 languages?!? Oh, yeah, I'm all Irish on mom's side, English on dad's side, but my relatives been here over 200 years. The great thing about America, is that it is made up of great people from every country in the world...so it's a world snap-shot of sorts of cultures. My folks are from the "south" which have "south accents" which are cool sounding to me. Glad u like Ireland! I tell peeps I'm Irish before English :ok: :laugh: :grin: :hi: :blowkiss:

 Luthien - 30/08/09, 18:27 reply
:-? :-? Hmmm, I don´t know if I should believe you! :D Yes that´s true, America is a land where lots of cultures live together and I also think it´s great! :thumbup: :D :D :D :D I also like the UK and it´s people...

 JRFortson - 30/08/09, 19:14 reply
well, our PEOPLE are great, but our GOVERNMENT FKN BLOWS!!! 8o| :ok: Sorry, but true! Don't get me started, HA! I'm sure the UK is great, and would love to travel one day!!! :grin: :grin: :grin:

 Luthien - 30/08/09, 22:33 reply
Ahhhhhhhh when it comes to the government and it´s politics it´s better to not think of it! :| :S: 8o| Don´t know if there´s ANY country in the world where ALL is working good. Guess not... ^o) And I want to cross the USA one day... ;xD :laugh: :laugh: :grin:

 JRFortson - 30/08/09, 23:10 reply
nope, you are right! They are ALL corrupt these days?!? You've never been here? It's a must see. Though I think even I have only been to like 7 states in my entire life :laugh: :oO: :grin: :hi: :blowkiss:

 Luthien - 31/08/09, 11:47 reply
No I´ve never been to USA yet... *Shame on me* I´ve got fear of flying. And you know a flight to the West Coast would take about 14 hrs... I think I wouldn´t survive it... :berk: :berk: :oO: :oO: BUT I WANT TO SEE THE STATES SO BADLY!!!

 JRFortson - 31/08/09, 16:53 reply
