A New Musician Portrait

I’d like to do another portrait of a musician. This time I will try and tackle a portrayal of Lady Gaga. I like the passion that she shows for her work and her passion for individuality and acceptance of others unconditionally. I would like my piece to reflect her passion through dramatic use of light and contrast and in the portrait overall. This is a small pencil drawing to try and establish an overall composition and mood. The lower sketch was my initial concept but I didn’t feel it was strong enough. It looks more like the beginnings of an editorial illustration.
