This is of course the famous guitarist Eddie Van Halen whose guitar wizardry changed the face of rock music and wowed guitarists worldwide. Eddie's technique is well-known now to many musicians and his playing style is very recognizable. I found this particular picture of him to be very haunting and mysterious. He certainly did have a look of a rock star. This portrait is of my style which can be somewhat sketchy. I like to see the marks and shapes and know it is a drawing. From a distance it looks realistic like a photo. This is my goal. Enjoy!
