This is my attempted grid art of Marilyn Monroe. Unfortunately it did not turn out how I hoped, but this was also my first ever attempt at grid-art. I definitely would give it another try.
-Dubstep: Skrillex Songs: kill everybody, ease my mind, try it out, etc. Chose this artist because they have a very electronic sound that is also very catchy in the sense that you can dance to it like most Dubstep music. -Punk: Green Day Songs: 21 Guns, Welcome to Paradise, Still Breathing, etc. Chose this artist because they have the traditional punk band sound of loud instruments and boyish vocals. -Disco: Sister Sledge Songs: Thinking of you, Lost in music, My Guy, etc. Chose this artist because they were very popular in the Disco era of music. -Girl Power: Beyonce Songs: Who run the world, Formation, Sorry, etc. Chose this artist because she makes a lot of songs about woman empowerment -Nineties artist: Nirvana Songs: Come as you are, Silver, Drain you, etc. Chose this artist because they were popular in the 90's.
