An Inktober Prompt: Crown. I imagined that scene from Rhianna's music video for her son 'Love on the Brain' (which is a very...interesting video) where she puts a crown on her head and so this Inktober prompt is very much that. She's sketched and shaded with pencil, copic marker for the black background to make her stand out more as grey and white. The crown itself was colored in gold.This piece was inspired by an Inktober prompt: Crown. As soon as I saw the prompt, my mind immediately went to that iconic scene from Rihanna's music video for her song 'Love on the Brain'—a video that's undeniably captivating. In that scene, Rihanna puts on a crown, exuding confidence and power, and I wanted to capture that same essence in my Inktober creation.

I sketched and shaded Rihanna with pencil, carefully capturing her likeness and expression. To make her stand out even more, I used Copic marker for the background, opting for black to create a stark contrast against the lighter tones of her skin and hair. This choice also adds a sense of drama and depth to the piece, drawing the viewer's attention to the central figure.

For the crown itself, I chose to color it in gold, adding a touch of regal elegance to the composition. Gold represents not only luxury and opulence but also strength and resilience—qualities that Rihanna embodies in both her music and her persona.

Overall, this piece is a tribute to Rihanna's iconic style and presence. It captures a moment of self-assuredness and glamour, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the world of the music video and feel the same sense of empowerment that Rihanna embodies.
