Ben

Ben Moss
Spring Awakening Alum, Harvard class of 2013

This boy is ridiculously talented. Look him up on youtube and check out his original songs. So good. I'm a big fan.

I'm not going to lie. I really really really like how this turned out. This is the best reference I've ever used. Photo credit goes to Emily Xie. You can see the photo HERE and HERE.

It was actually pretty fun doing the freckles. Facial hair, not so much.

My ridiculously messy desk.

Jude

Jude Law.

Drawn for a friend's birthday even though it's now a month late.

aaaand an earthquake just occurred. lovely.

Random/I don't think anyone reads this anyways:
I performed a piano solo on Saturday at my school's Showcase event and it was not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. I think I've conquered my stage fright at last! Which is really a relief to me and should take a lot of stress away when I perform now. But for the first time actually playing on a stage with a tech crew and lights and everything in front of a couple hundred of people (in a floor length dress which I have certainly never done before), I didn't even feel my heart start to pound. Just went on, played my lovely Chopin etude which I still can't do justice after 15 months of learning/practicing, and left. I'm quite pleased that I now know that I can do that without getting physically nervous. It used to be that my pedal foot would shake uncontrollably (as would my hands and my heart would thump like crazy). But it's all gone now! (:

Seven more days of school = why am I still in school?

Lastly, I'm not sure how not posting for a couple of months equates two new followers, but thank you! I really do appreciate it. And it's not like i'll clog up your dashboards since I don't post very frequently anyways(:

Oh and I don't have a link to the ref. Sorry I keep on forgetting to save the URLs.
(He's in a towel, btw. That's what that giant blank space is)

THIS MARKS THE END OF BIRTHDAY GIFT ART. I'm now going to spend at least the next year being selfish and drawing the crapload of references I have queued up in my REFS folder on my desktop. Who's ready to see some major freckle fail?
