Yay! I finally finished it! It took my forever to find a good photo reference. But I came to an agreement that David Bowie would make an excellent Fool ;3the Fool (c) Robin Hobb

I would like to think this is what he looks like in his "Lord Golden" facade, since his hair is said to be white and unruly (fly-away) when he's playing The Fool~

I love this picture, I was at a interview with Hobb and she said that she had based the fool on a younger version of Bowie, this is so perfect <3

Wow! Good reference! I'm proud of myself that I saw the picture and thought "Hmmm...He looks like David Bowie". Before I read the description!

You are an amazing artist, there is no doubt about that! But... I really cannot see the Fool in this picture. Perhaps it is his expression...

Thank you for your comment. I think you're right, it isn't a very Fool like portrait when it comes to the expression, like you said. Maybe I'll try it again some other time ;3
When I do, please let me know if I did a better job ^^

That's really a fantastic interpretation of the fool. The background could do with a bit more detail perhaps, but you've worked out the face absolutely beautiful!

That's good to hear, thank you ^^

Looks like I'm not the only one who imagines the Fool resembling David Bowie... It's because Bowie is a fine real-life example of androgynous looks, especially younger. He's not just a male who looks feminine, but he really has both features.
This is a beautiful piece, I like the expression of his face, he looks so concentrated. The features are capturing and interesting, not especially beautiful, but fascinating all the same. Something about the lips disturb me somewhat, though, they don't look as nnatural as the rest of the piece, I think.

You are ...the best person alive.
My love for Bowie meets my love for the Fool character in a wonderful mixture of splendour
This is beautiful... your colouring style is so lovely.

David Bowie as Fool/Lord Golden = Awesomeness. I love the cover of the Book. Someone's researching Dragons...
