Description My first fan art of the incomparable Natalie Portman. Also my first triple collaboration I drew the portrait in 16 hours with an ebony pencil (& nothing else) on matboard and my lovely wife Jill manipulated a photo called "Dots" [link] by the talented Purplefantasticzebra go check out her photos . . . you can thank me later. Inspired by the amazing work of MaxTegman and the song "Run" by Snow Patrol. I could not find a Photographer to credit for this reference [link]

Light up, light up

Thanks! Yeah, I desperately want to do some digital art, but I'm old school and my mac can smell my fear from across the room. So put the wife to work on this one cuz she smart & stuff and knows how to use PS. Then she started showing off and came up with the whole composition!
