Johnny Depp















This piece was my opportunity to explore a cool and unique face. Something I dig about Johnny Depp is that he appears to be quite stand-offish in the public eye, yet he has very solid smile lines - the sign of a happy disposition + he tends to laugh a lot on camera in a very chill way (is that possible?).

I've been a fan since Edward Scissorhands - great flick. This piece touches on then and now. I didn't want to focus on a particular time for this piece, but rather aim on getting a sense of both the man and the myth. Of course, only Johnny Depp knows Johnny Depp.
