A Pencil Portrait of Jack Nicholson

about 3 years ago

Besides Heath Ledger and Joaquin Phoenix, my third favorite Joker happens to be Jack Nicholson. His natural expression (that is Jack Nicholson) when he plays the part really makes me laugh. And his weird broad automated smile is a sight, a beautiful sight. I kinda went through the trouble of finding the short clip of his favorite line, you know the one he says before shooting someone;
'Have you ever danced with the Devil in a pale moonlight?'

To see it, you have to wait till the end....

And here's another scene I really love and just can't afford to leave out. It's the scene in which he visited the Museum of Arts where miss Vail was and there did the Joker dance. My favorite step was when he imitated the tiptoing bronze statue before pushing it down....lol
Here you have it...

My love for this portrait cannot be expressed with words and as it's the first of many Jack Nicholson I'll be making, I hope to do more in the future. Hopefully the next one I'll do will be an impression from the 2006 Departed movie.
And so I'd like to know your take on this one. Do feel free to leave your comments below....
