Years ago I have been drawing portraits as commissions and still I think I like to do it, because human face is the most interesting thing to draw (for me at least). However, this started absolutely randomly - I was sitting with pencil and paper in my hands and looking for ideas for the picture, I promised Ashia-chan. I have found another idea finally, but the sketch was already quite good and I thought, why not give it a try? Lately I was thinking about trying to draw a portrait digitally, and prove myself, that I still can do portraits at all (it's actually the first time, I did a portrait on computer, so don't be too hard with it, OK?^^). So, this way Mr. Christensen has become quite a random victim of my ambition. Besides, I liked the colours of the photo.

I know, the hair could be better, but it was horrible to draw since it is such a mess, lol. I wanted simply to get rid of the picture at last, after 3 days. Gosh, I seriously need a break.

Edit: I have fixed the hair a bit, I guess, I can't do much more with it, so it's the very final version.
