My Intended Entry For The EliteArtists February Competition
"The Land Down Under"
No Photographers were injured in the making of this fan ART. More than 8 different photographic references were used. This pose is completely fabricated by the Artist. 8.25"x10.25" Acrylic Grisaille.

In greatest memory of my "bohemian brother"
Mr. Heath Ledger...You will always be remembered!

This tribute is also dedicated to his beautiful daughter Matilda, and his gracious family left behind!:blackrose:

Although I had no intentions of making this a print, I have decided to leave it indefinitely as a download so that anyone may print it out for themselves if they desire. (I encourage you to use watercolor paper cut to size.) Feel free to use it in any blogs, etc. etc. its my greatest hope, that we can enhance the image, that we are left artistically to remember him by. Heath was so obviously loved by so many, and everyone that knew anything about him, especially here on dA! My best to you always in final tribute!
UPDATE:11/04/08 Go vote then eat here!![link]

Please ALWAYS feel free to make comment on any of my submissions...If a negative remark/criticize, I kindly ask you to do so under my personal "note" section directly to me. Thank you for all that even take the time to peruse my gallery! "Vive la vie boheme"

This is very lovely. You captured Heath perfectly. I think he is an angel

Oh wow. I am very late to the party but wanted to say, This is exquisite. Love your use of color. The whole piece is so sensitively rendered. And your choice of subject matter--well I wish it didn't have to be that he has angel wings but you know. So it is, and so you have him. Thank you for this!

I loved Heath Ledger primarily for his amazing acting talent, then for his looks. I bawled when he died.
