AVRIL LAVIGNE

I published my first portrait of Avril Lavigne on which I worked for the last days. I’ve never done this kind of close-up portraits. It was a challenge for me! It is a work made ​​entirely pencils type koh-i-noor. One of the elements truniejszych proved to me her hair. I think I’ll draw her yet.

Avril Lavigne was born in Belleville, Ontario, Canada on September 27, 1984. At 16, she moved to Manhattan and began work on her debut album. She dropped out of high school after the 11th grade when she secured a record deal. When Avril was almost 18, she released “Complicated” from her debut album titled: “Let Go,” which went 6x platinum. As a petite skater girl from a small town, Avril has shown she is independent, full of confidence and determination, providing a good combination to make “Complicated” and Avril a musical breakthrough. “Complicated” went to number #1 on Billboards Top 100 while also earning her 5 Grammy nominations, MTV music awards, MTV European music awards and many more.
