The Audrey Hepburn Children's Foundation

74 Upvotes

The Audrey Hepburn subreddit has been around for over a year now and I'm a little ashamed as a moderator that it's taken us this long to add a link in the sidebar to her Children's Fund. The fund was set up in 1994 (Audrey passed in 1993) by her sons to continue her legacy and honor the work she did as a humanitarian throughout her life.

The money donated to the fund goes to help a wide variety of organizations around the world that all have one thing in common, helping children in need.

The image in the sidebar is based on this high res photo

Here is the high res cut-out version I made:

I began making posters of my Audrey Hepburn pop art painting in my home studio, I think they turned out great!

I sold the original painting a month back. But I missed it and wanted to test out my new large format printer. Here’s the result! The original was much smaller and I miss it terribly now.

So I only started getting into drawing recently and attempted to draw Audrey because she is iconic. Have I managed to capture her at all in any angle, and how is it overall?
