Description
The beautiful Angelina Jolie.I chose this photo to try to re-create because of the soft, relaxed look she had at that particular moment in time.
I've always wanted to try drawing Angie, but there are already so many drawings of her out there now that are really well done, however, when I saw this photo of her I decided to try drawing it because it showed a different side of her, not the tough Lara Croft image, but more of a vulnerable, calm look that I hadn't seen often.
I hope you like it~

I worked on it nights probably about 20hrs or more in all. I kept seeing imperfections and then re-did tiny areas to death! Glad you like it!

Wow. The likeness is truly amazing, and you've really communicated the fuzziness of her sweater.
