This picture is a direct homage to my favorite Shakespearean play- 'Othello'.
This particular portrayal is slightly based off of Laurence Fishburne in the 1995 film version of the play.

As you can see, it's simply a sketch, which is why I didn't really tidy it up. You can still see the smudge marks from my palm! lol
But I loved the sketch so much, that I decided to just leave it and post it up to share! Your thoughts?

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW THE AMAZING STORY OF OTHELLO, CONTINUE READING:

"The Tragedy of Othello, the Moor of Venice", is widely considered to be one of William Shakespeare's best plays, and is my personal favorite.
It is a story of love, hate, trust, and betrayal. But what sets it apart from any of Shakespeare's other plays is that this story is set around interracial marriage.
I would type up a whole report, but I'm sure I'd bore you guys. So if you still want to learn more, visit Wikipedia's article
Don't worry, it's ALL accurate! ;)
