Farell as Alexander.

Colin Farell as Alexander..

Pencil on Canvas Paper, (love the texture showing through)..

Thank you all who look at this artwork…

Alexander is my all time favorite historical figure..

I think he was a spunk of 5th Century BC…

I think it all comes to: ONE PERCENT INSPIRATION.. and NINETY NINE PERCENT PERSPIRATION…

As you can see I really sweated it out …

Farell as Alexander. belongs to the following groups:
