Original artwork description:

After discovering the recently listed monochrome Marilyn pastel (the recently discovered study from 2012) I decided to look at doing a new piece as a challenge & break from my acrylic paintings.

Having watched the 1958 Hitchcock film 'Psycho' for the first time in well over a decade and having decided to do a monochrome drawing I thought that doing a modest sized illustration would be a suitable challenge. I wanted to do a composition that reflected the two main characters central to the film - although there is more to the film than the build up to the infamous 'shower scene'

Portraiture is what I do so selecting and working on the Janet Leigh and Anthony Perkins character portraits to fit together; I avoided just copying a scene from the film.

Offered as an illustration of movie fan art hand drawn using white pastel and charcoal on black paper, mounted, framed and ready to wall hang.

Materials used:

pastel & charcoal
