For my portrait piece, I used pen for stippling and sheet music that I tore up and glued to the canvas with gel medium. After I chose a canvas, I printed out some antique sheet music from online and used gel medium to stick it to the canvas. Then I rebrushed over it with more gel medium. I lightly traced the portrait in pencil to get the proportions right and then I used pen to stipple all the shadows and values and a portrait was the result. I chose to draw my brother mainly because I didn't have a Christmas gift for him yet, but also because he was wearing sunglasses in the picture I found and it is hard to get the eyes right. Also he's a cool kid and has smooth skin that I thought would be good to draw.
