This drawing was done last night in about thirty minutes. I'm neither happy nor unhappy with this drawing. I don't mind the overall look, or the sketchy colouring, but I could have been more attentive while drawing the face - it's not as good a likeness as it could have been.

The model was excellent. Although it's not evident in the drawing, the pose was difficult. The stand, that the model's arm is resting on, wasn't stable. It was the model who was holding it in place.
