October 31st marks Reformation Day. In honor, I did this quick piece of Martin Luther in photoshop. It’s based on a painting of him I found on the internet, done by some famous and superior painter. I made him fatter and his head a little squarer, and finished it in about 2 hours. I intended for it to be very exaggerated, but when I finished, it seemed less caricatured than I expected.
Below is a step by step.
Is it based on the Cranach?
