Description Finished!

Sean Penn, you may know him for his work in I am Sam, Mystic River, 21 grams, Dead man walking...and many more.

I admire his work, and I've always wanted to draw this picture of him, but I didn't feel prepared until now. I chose this title because of his role in the movie We're no angels (with Robert De Niro). That's one of my all time fave movies, and I love his work on it.

As you know if you've followed the wip, I've loved to do this drawing, and hope you enjoy seeing it as much as I've enjoyed drawing it. This time I've mostly used circulism.

Thank you so much for looking and for your comments and favs during the process.


0.5mm HB and 2B mech pencils and 4B pencil.
Duration: around 14-15 hours.
Size: A4

Is it me, or is there a certain passing resemblance to Frank Zappa going on here? I'm not that familiar with SP.(0her thhan 20years ago!)

this is absolutely amazing! I adore Sean Penn, but I have to say I likes him best in Dead Man Walking, but that might be cuz hes so yummy as for performance...probably I am Sam, I cried so much wonderful drawing, really really great!

Just saw the wip before i saw this one. Knew just by the wip that it was going to be extraordinaire, but this has even surpassed my expectations,.... Simply Stunning!

And with your mention of We're No Angels, i am now gonna have to break out the dvd and watch it again, Great movie! Deniro's funniest performance as well.

Thank's a lot, this one took me quite a while to complete and I'm very happy you like it!

I just love We're no angels, DeNiro's funniest performance for sure. I think I've watched it like a hundred times, and never get tired of it!

wow, sean penn es uno de mis actores favoritos y creo que uno de los ultimos que si pueden actuar. te pido un favor, y se que no soy nadie para pedirte un favor, pero como un fanatico de tu trabajo te pido que si por favor dibujas a bruce lee en su traje amarillo el que uso en la pelicula de the game of death.

Thank you so much for the nice words. I used to finish my drawings very quickly, but then I realized that the more hours I spent on them the better drawing I could make. To be patient is very important to make a good drawing
