I’m drawn to them because of the characters in them. What was the artist thinking when she or he was drawing? Is it based on a real person? I want to know about that character and also the artist: his/her story. I especially love drawing people and they are always so special to draw because it’s like I’m getting to know them, even though I’m not actually speaking to them (which is awkward). I appreciate them more after I’m done drawing them. Looking at the curves of their face, their wrinkles, freckles, eyes, scars, and expressions. People are so striking and that exists even more so when I’m looking at their faces at 600% magnification. hide
