Description the awesome JGL! i love him and all of his work.

and no, i did not use any photoshop enhancements for the blur on his shirt. i used a technique called "burnishing" where you use a white colored pencil or any pale color colored pencil and color over any part you want to look smudged or blurred-- try it out!

duration: 17 hours

Have you seen the movie "Brick"? I just found out about it recently… he's great in it, too. He gets better by leaps and bound with every movie… : )

Really?? Really you finished this last night you are crazy! I dont know how you did it buy im glad you did. This looks great, the shirt really ties in the colour of his hat and the colours you put in on hi face for the reflected light really brings his face forward, and ties in the shadows on his shirt. Amazing girl, beautiful as always.
