I have to draw Rick Santorum (as a hideous distorted monster) for my political poster project so I took his picture and superimposed owl faces on it and now I have to draw the lineart and I don’t want to because every time I look at it it sends chills up my spine

Have you ever just
really illogically hated someone you’ve never really talked to
simply because one time they did something that you found mildly annoying

Oh GOD yeah, the prominently-colored lips and big eyes and bony features… I’m sure there are special words for this, but I got none. I think your art actually emphasizes your look, rather than just mirroring it.
Thank you! That is a very interesting take on it, and a fine compliment. I suppose art always does mirror the artist in some degree.
As a general principle I’d say that’s the complete opposite of true, but you do seem to pull off what you do just fine. INTERESTING, though.
Fascinatingly enough, a lot of people who look through my sketchbook still tend to say that my art looks just like me. It’s very peculiar.
How come?
Mostly because, while my facial geometry isn’t objectionable, it’s fairly uninteresting. I can get more character out of other shapes.
AAAWW NIIICE. I love the blue-purple shading. It just hit me that, geometrically, you always try to draw face shapes that are almost opposite your own.
Ba-zing, you hit the nail on the head. I try to do exactly that.
I had a dream that someone in a haunted house gave me and Rendex a kitten and then I tried to steal deer pelts from a giant camp that looked like it was abandoned but the fire was still burning and then I got chased by the giants only one of them looked like and orc and I woke up right as I got introduced to the Nordic Space Program.
And then I realized it was 3 PM and I wanted to die.
