THE DRAGON AND THE WOLF; Loyalty and honor of a true leader, JON SNOW (Self portrait)

in selfportrait-contest •  7 years ago 

Hi steemians its me again and i've decided to send in a self portrait of the true king of the seven kingdoms, JON SNOW because of is unwavering loyalty and honor.

Rather fail with honor than succeed with pride ~sophodes~

I admire his candor through out the game of thrones series (which ended up costing him his life in the final episodes of season 5) especially those displayed throughout the just concluded season 7. if only we could all emulate the attributes of jon snow, the world will be definitely be a better place especially here in Africa where our leaders take advantage of their positions and forget to serve and protect the interest of the people.
This is my second drawing in a very long time and i had to draw and redraw before i could come close to what i wanted...i hope you appreciate it.

STEP 1: I made a first attempt at the drawing

But if it be a sin to covet honor, i am the most offending soul alive. ~William Shakespeare~

STEP 2: I made a final sketch, shading and finishing touches to the new drawing

Where there is no honor, there is no grief. ~George Herbert~

STEP 3: A collage of the photographic picture and drawing

Honor belongs to those who never forsake the truth even when things seem dark and grim, who are never discouraged by insults, humiliation and even defeat. ~Nelson Mandela~
