‘Marilyn’ graphite pencil on Schoellershammer paper - 21 x 29 cm
What can I say… everybody loves Marilyn. I have drawn her several times myself. I like this particular photograph a lot because she looks very fragile here. I decided to translate that by using very brittle, almost translucent paper and also I used a very narrow (light) value range with only a few darker spots, most notably her eyes.
