This is my first entry into 365 requests, an open call for portrait, illustration, and light logo requests from friends who’d like to participate in this project. This entry was a photo from my friend Dennis O’ Brien, who happens to be the current Mayor of Newtown Township in Pennsylvania. I love working with him in any case, but I’m glad he answered my call for raw material for the 365sketches blog project. I started with his photo in which he was wearing a viking helmet and braids, obviously a fun photo where he was performing opera. I decided to run with the horns theme, and give him horns of his very own. I got a CC licensed image at Flickr from Ben Pollard (http://www.flickr.com/photos/ben_pollard/2343700094/) and did some conversions to vector, some surgery to nodes, and some fine tuning with the eraser and calligraphy tools in Inkscape. It helps that Horns are Epic, but so is Dennis.
