Two new portraits.
posted:
These portraits were made using the technique that i demonstrated in the video in my previous post. Steinbeck is one of my favorite authors, and Hemingway is simply interesting to draw. Can't say that i am a big fan of his, but had fun.
 
Here below are a few quotes from Steinbeck that i found interesting-
 
It has always seemed strange to me... the things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second.
John Steinbeck


it is a common experience that a problem difficult at night is resolved in the morning after the committee of sleep has worked on it.
John Steinbeck

Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts... perhaps the fear of a loss of power.
John Steinbeck

Writers are a little below clowns and a little above trained seals.
John Steinbeck
