I am going to be describing Freddie Merucry
-shy
-quiet
-secretive

Of course on stage Freddie Mercury was none of these things. He became al out a whole different person, Infact he was a very loud flamboyant character that was full of energy.

-He would be wearing his yellow buckled jacket that he wore at wembly stadium in 1986.

- The background would be a stage with a bunch of colorful lights.

1. Nicholas James Murphy is a musician that I am interested about, he is:
Warm looking, meaningful, slow paste, complicated;
2. I would like to communicate and express Nicholas' emotions and senses through my portrait, to give the viewer a sense of who he actually is just by the first looks.
3. Background's atmosphere could be very animalistic and natural, using a tone of shady toned down colours, or a same tone of colour but in different shades- monocolour.

I think, Ariana Grande would be an interesting subject for a portrait.
Ari has a really unique personality, she is always happy and could be a little overreacted sometimes about they way she respond to some stuff. Overall, she's a really talented person and even though she isn't very good at many other things but hey, nobody's perfect right? :-xo
What am I trying to embrace to the viewer is that beauty comes in different way but not everyone can sees it.
I would choose something pinky and bubbly since her personality is always happy to express Ari.

This girl, whom I've known for awhile, there's alot about her that other people don't see, her smile, her laugh, and her sense of humor. She's known for being a a phycho, and hurts herself becasue she wasn't accepted. A potrait of her smile and the sterling archer custom she wore for halloween, while longboarding would speak for her.

I would mostly prefer James Bond
-He is a very stylish gentlemen.
-He is a famous actor
-He is a talented person with many skills
-He is nice looking.
-He cares for other people too.
I would to talk with him about his motivation what brings him to became who he is today so that the viewers could see that inside every successful people, They had a hard time in the past to fight to live so that the viewers will blaming themselves for not doing their best
i would mostly prefer him to wear something black, expensive, made from Italy or Paris, a nice black suit mostly best for him, it shows his skill of being a gentlemen which attract a lot of people. His expression should be half serious and half secretive and the background should be in Paris, eating his dinner like a gentlemen and look the whole city in the best restaurant which serve the best wine.
