The Story Of

Joy

Those of you who know me in the real world might recognise this guy, my husband Russell. This is a photo I took of him at The Happening, a motorcycle and music event we used to organise. This is one of my favourite images of him so had to draw it, and I've called it 'Joy' as his expression captures his emotions on that night.
Not for Sale

I started by laying down a pink background using Pan Pastel and a sponge applicator. Then I put down the base layer of skin colour with pencils.

Next I played with the background using blue Pan Pastel to break up the solid pink and give texture.

Finally added the jacket, radio and t-shirt detail using coloured pencils.
