Busted! Yep, it's a part of the face that I'm particularly partial to. If you read up on it, it's a very interesting little dent--can indicate infertility and other health issues but I think this is my favorite thing about it...
In Jewish mythology, an angel strikes a newborn on the upper lip right before birth to create the philtrum, so he forgets all he saw and knew as a soul.
When I drew this face I kept asking myself "Is this a compassionate face or the face of a corrupt man?" I'm thinkin' the corrupt side won out. Honestly, I thought the thing people would notice first would be that awesome comb-over. '-)
I am an infant when it comes to my drawings... I am also brand new on this site, but I was browsing around and came upon this drawing and I have to say, I really found myself drawn to him... I love his blue eyes. ( I always notice peoples eyes before anything else)! I didn't even notice the "comb over" you mentioned! but what really made me like him was his eyebrows!
You are an extremely talented artist. One, you obviously have all of the proportions correct and all of the fundamentals down pat... But mainly because you have the ability to give them life. You bring out emotion in the people you draw and I truly admire that in an artist! I've enjoyed looking at your art and will continue to study it as I search for my own style.
