Inspirational Portraits

I find inspiration in each of these people (fictional or otherwise), be it their writing, music, activism, or personal shortcomings. Each of these pieces not only inspire me through their subject matter, but also through their atheistic and execution. I work find that my best work is done when surrounded by inspiring imagery.
