    very cool Lee. i think that the random, squiggly strokes of color through the hair give this the feel of not being very restful. excellent drawing and great use of color

    Very serene portrait except for the jagged pencil strokes that give away the secret of the
    nuisance of not sleeping once again! :((( Been there..but I can’t do this.
    Well done, Lee.
