question about portrait artists?
ok, so im doing a portrait project at school, and i have drawn a picture of a girl, and her face has jigsaw pieces in, and her hair has lyrics from songs and random words. My teacher says i need to do an artists reserach sheet for it, to show people what i was inspired by. The thing is, i didnt actually take inspiration from any artist, and now i need to find an artist who uses jigsaw pieces in their portraits, or uses text in their portraits. I’ve searched all over google and i cant find any at all. Does anyone know any?
thanks.
Akron, Ohio artist John Sokol makes portraits of famous authors out of the words of their texts

The closest I can come up with for a jigsaw image is the photo montages of British artist David Hockney
