Description Finished version of a very quick sketch I did a few weeks ago. Loved working with these pop art colors - this was overall very experimental. Painted in Adobe Photoshop with a Wacom tablet - initial reference from a photo of Dianna Agron from here .

I just can't get over how much I love your work! The colors are so vibrant and the way you do the shading.... and the hair... in a messy but very specifically-stylized way... I'm not an artist so I know I'm not using the right terms so I'm sorry. But I just wanted to (attempt) to convey to you (again!) how much I love these, I just can't stop looking at them because they are so lovely!!!!!!

I am fairly agile
I can bend and not break
Or I can break and take it with a smile
And I am so resilient
I recover quickly
I'll convince you soon that I am fine

Perfect strokes! That's a very quick sketch?
It would probably take me weeks to get something so perfectly imperfect (in lines).
BEAUTIFUL!
