Description They are being loved and despised for their oddity, weirdness and originality. But in the end, they don't mind what people think about their behaviour. I guess they have created their own freedom of art and music. <3


6 quick (scribbled) sketches of young eccentric singers with funky haircuts that I like. I gave them a new make-over by giving rainbow hair colours.



From left to right:
Björk Jared Leto Kelis
Matt Bellamy Lady Gaga Adam Lambert



Although they are original individuals on their own, they do have 1 thing in common: their love for having extremely weird haircuts (and make-up but that's a subject we'll leave for another day).


Also, they are somehow connected to each other, the so called "Six Degrees of Separation". Can you find their connection? Start with Björk and you'll end with Adam Lambert.

First clue: Jared Leto covered a song of Björk, called "Hunter". He also covered somebody else's song...


-------

Bruynzeel coloured pencils & H 0.5mm mechanical pencil on crappy quality paper. A few references used, but nothing specific. About 4 hours of time.


This summer I offer coloured and non-coloured sketches for $15 per head! You can reserve up to 3 small portraits of whoever you want. Note me if you are interested. :D

I haven't heard of her before. There are plenty of incredible (and incredibly weird) singers out there, but I wanted to make sure who exactly I was drawing

Cataclysm-X In reply to thenizu [2010-07-11 15:00:48 +0000 UTC]

Ignorance is Bliss, MCE!

Haha yeah who could have imagined I would draw EITHER Gaga or Lambert, on the same page! But the thing is... I really like them omg my first public confession.

...but hunger, too! I want to know!

Actually, this is your almost-public-confession...at least, I already knew about Gaga, but I had no idea about Lambert DDD8 (I don't like Gaga for some reasons, but I surely have a THING for Lambert, yes)

Glad he's recognizable it was kind of a shocker when he first showed his mohawk, but I guess it looks pretty cool after all!

ffxauron In reply to Cataclysm-X [2010-07-11 15:02:06 +0000 UTC]

Well, after I read all the names, I was easily able to recognize them. It's great work how capture their likenesses with so little detail.

All the crazy hairdos are great too

If it's not too much trouble, I would love a note too. I know who all these people are, but I don't really listen to much of their music. Maybe a little Jared and Matt, but that's about it....

ah sorry can't do that, or I have to note everybody else too
BUT no worries! I shall update my description with the answers soon

Okay. I'm just apathetic to the music they make, really, but am intrigued to know how björk and Matt Bellamy have anything in common.

Where is David Bowie? The original shock-rocker!

Cataclysm-X In reply to Fatius [2010-07-11 14:47:28 +0000 UTC]

Oh but these are the younglings I was actually thinking about adding Bowie to the list, but I thought he wouldn't fit between Gaga and Lambert

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Fatius In reply to Cataclysm-X [2010-07-11 15:48:24 +0000 UTC]

Well he would've fitted in with the concept, considering the lightning bolt on Gaga was done as a tribute to him (though I'm not sure how many people would take Gaga mentioning them as a tribute...), but physically you may have been pressed for space on the page!

KRaven42 In reply to Fatius [2010-07-11 20:57:52 +0000 UTC]

I must agree... I, too, would love to see a David Bowie drawing in this list D:
