Releasing the frustration

After I made the last drawing that went so spectacularly wrong I drew this cartoon sketch which low and behold produced a better likeness in 5 minutes than I managed in over an hour of work and toil. Now there are many reasons for this, perhaps the most important is that I knew the face I was trying to capture so very well that when it came to the cartoon I was able to draw it with better accuracy.

Anyway, I like this and I'm particularly taken by the deep blue eyes. Now I know that Kidman's eyes are a much lighter blue but this blue seems to work better with the drawing.
