Benedict Cumberbatch

Great actor (especially in Sherlock!) with a really interesting face, which is why I decided to paint him just for fun and practice.  I used the cardboard back of a watercolor block, which is not ideal as a surface - it degrades quickly and absorbs water - but it was still usable.  Overall pretty happy with the result.  One of these days I'm going to have to think more carefully about rendering curly hair. hmmmm...
