Description
Robert Nesta Marley, 1945-81'The sadly too short story of the King of reggae, and prophet, Bob Marley, started on February 6, 1945, in a small, almost utopian part of Jamaica called the parish of Nine Miles, when he was born to sixteen year old mother Cedella Malcolm, and father, Captain Norval Marley, a Middle aged, white Jamaican of the British West India Regiment. At a very young age he was kidnaped by his father, and left with an eldery woman in the the dangerous city of Kingston. After about a year pretty much on his own, his mother tracked him down and took him back to the country, but the bonds he had made in the big, bad city would last a lifetime. And so, as they say, the rest is history, and if you don't know the story, go here: [link] or go to a book store and get a book called, "Catch a Fire" the Story of Bob Marley".

i like the bottom half of the face might be a tad to large.
at first glance, that part seemed a little off.
but other than that, this is fantastic, fantastic work.
it must have taken so much work, especially the hair..
and i like the way the teeth came out, i always have difficulty making teeth look realistic but not like, dirty.
and i love the eyes.. and everything..
you are very talented.

well i think this was my second time drawing him, it was a while ago so i think it was around 4 or 5 hours. i usually keep track of the drawing time on the back, but this one is framed and hung so i'd have to get it down and open it up to know for sure.
but thank you very much for the comment!
