Artist's Comments

I feel I did a disservice to Shirley Manson with my previous submission(let's just say I suck at proper proportions), and it didn't really look like her, nor did it look... human... so I decided to take a new approach to drawing her.... rather than the wide variety of pencils I normally use, I took a black gel pen, and a sharpie, and did this... I do too many pencil portraits...


I slightly tweaked the contrast after scanning it, so that the blacks are a bit more smooth, other than that, I was completely satisfyed with Ms. Manson this time round.

Hope someone out there likes it.

No disservice. Any homage to Shirley is a great one. God I love that woman.
:icondark99:
Words cannot express the attachment I have to her...
:iconamericanninjax:
I'd grow a birth canal just to have her children. So I feel ya. Great work here. Instantly recognizable as our Shirley Girl.

Hahaha... thanks for the compliments... and the disturbing imagry...

I don't really know much about Garbage, but some of my friends listen to them
:icondark99:
Their first album is quite good in my opinion. I highly recommend it.
:iconlovefoolosophy:
I absolutely adore Garbage, best band I've heard in all my years. I really like this new approach here. It's much different, but trying something different is always good. You should do more stuff like this :)

I agree, I was sort of going through my gallery here, and was trying to think of some stuff I could do to add some variety, and it just occured to me I hadn't done portraits in anything other than graphite... so yeah...

And Garbage is indeed a superb group.

I am in love with Shirley Manson, so anything like this is GOOD. ;)
