Page 94/100 Drawing an Icon.
You know, if you are a sketchnoter, for some people you are "the guy who draw" and they ask you everything from cats portraits to tattoos. So, a friend of mine recently asked me to draw an icon for his new app. That question rounded and rounded in my mind and I gave it a try: I wanted to draw an Icon. I choose a portrait of Marilyn Monroe taken by Alfred Eisenstaedt, iconic at maximum level. I must be honest: this time it took ages and not less that a dozen of attempts to arrive at this. I just subtracted what I thought wasn't distinctive and what wasn't able to render correctly. It was one of the hardest drawing ever.
