DESCRIPTION // This is an artwork I did of an icon that I look up to the most. For me, he’s one of the greatest icons of my generation - Mike Shinoda of ‘Linkin Park’. I’ve been a long time and a true ‘Linkin Park’ fan for as long as I can remember and I’ve been following his artistic career ever since the year 2000. I decided to make an artwork of him because his music and art inspired me in a lot of ways. As an artist, he inspired me to be experimental, to experiment different with possibilities, to identify my strengths and weaknesses. How would you describe your style? Digital art/vector art is my strong suit but then I like to experiment different mediums (hand made drawings or sketches, painting and digital) and figure out what works and what doesn’t. Briefly outline your creative process. What are the major steps? Before making this artwork, the first thing I did was find some reference photos in relation to Mike Shinoda, and, once I found the image I was looking for, I went on straight to Adobe Illustrator to get started. The next thing I did after drawing and adding some colours, I went on to Photoshop to add some extra details and for the final polish.
