The King of Grunge and the Princess of Wales



First up is Princess Diana. She's one of my idols: does wonderful things for people in need and was an honorable human being. She inspires me every day, and learning of her death saddened me so much.

I found a picture of her online, one that was already a sketch, from one of the best sketch artists I've ever seen. Mine simply doesn't compare to this person's work, but she also inspired me to try and live up to her own talents. I love every part of this drawing: it's become one of my favorites before I even finished it.



Next is Kurt Cobain. He is also an inspiration to me. He is a legend in the rock and grunge world, and his lyrics are phenomenal. I also think he was a great-looking man, so I wasn't too afraid to venture out of my comfort zone and try another man. Usually I prefer women because femininity is a lot easier for me to observe, but every so often men just catch my eye. Here is the outcome.
