Pencil drawing I was never particularly into Nirvana's music, but this photo of Kurt Cobain that I saw on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine just after he died, was so touching. It is intense and stark and desperate and painful to look at. You can see all the pain and confusion in his eyes, his very struggle with life.
