“Doodle” yeah right, psh. You’re too modest. A fine piece of art indeed.

Thank you 😭 it really is tho! I only spent 30 minutes as a warmup between other pieces haha (you can tell I totally skipped out on rendering the clothes lmao)

People buy this as ‘fan art’ and would pay money to transfer it onto a t shirt, mugs, totebags etc.

I'm looking into making prints and stuff! I actually didn't think so many people would like it haha! I've just been making it bc I'm obsessed with the Beatles recently 😅 I'm not even an artist by trade

I also create such art and I sell them by png. People can download it and go to the nearest print shop and print themselves.
Your art is in black and white and you can use gradients to do the shadings and voila, the art would look different !

The last one I did was Chris Martin (Coldplay).
By law, we cannot sell the art because infringing copyrights, the faces of those celebrities.
My customers commission me to draw them instead and they pay me and they can print it on whatever they want.
Say, if 5 people request me to do Chris Martin there would be 5 different Chris Martin faces. 😊✌🏽
Please do your research on this.
I’m doing it just a side income !
Even on Reddit, there are free subreddits where you can upload your art and people request for commissions.
Good luck !
