Captain Jack Sparrow (Fan Art) digital artwork by Mj Strolla
 
Artist's Comment
Greeting,

This is my first attempt at digital art. Since I trying to learn the features I decided to keep it simple. You will likely see a lot of black white portraits of famous folk before I feel secure enough to jump into color. Comments welcome.

a very good redrawing of johnny. focus on sketchwork for a while. don't get into color right away. sketch work is the black/white for a reason. you can bottom line everything, focus off color and focus on the details of the work. and an eye for detail, for an artist, is priceless.

You did very well on this! Of course I LOVE Johnny. I attempted to paint him too in this pose, but did not have time to paint the pistol.

I love the black and white way you painted this. Of course you and I know there is no such things as "black and white painting" with any art media that is why I totally love this!
Black and white is actually made up of colors that resemble the true colors.

Super job! Hope to see more of your works!

Pistol grip seems a little off, but it looks good in context. I really like the look in his eyes and facial expression. Well done!

very good, and as for the last comment, art is about interpetation, not exactness.
