I have not drawn in well over a year so am rusty. 
This one took about 2-3 hours in one session today.

    Hey! I think your drawing reflects more how he felt as in the photograph.
    Cheers

    Thank you. I titled it 'troubled genius'. 
    I've always been saddened by that photo of Kurt. He looks so depressed and worried.

    Thank you.
    I was asked to draw Chris Cornell next. I find that he would be more difficult to draw. I might have a go tonight.

    Looks great T_A !!! Thanks for sharing your drawing. You really captured the emotions in his eyes and face,  that’s very hard I think.

    I’m looking forward to see your drawing of Chris Cornell.

    It didn't turn out right, I think it sucks so am not sure I want to share.

    Just give it another go! I have to start again all the time. It’s part of the learning process :smile:

    I'll definitely do that.

    The expression on his face comes through remarkably!  I've done a little drawing and eyes are hard for me- you did Kurt's eyes so well!   Nice work!
