Day 5 of 366 Daily Sketch Challenge

Just a quick post and run tonight. 
I have a migraine trying to get a grip on me.
Another self-portrait.

Just close your eyes and relax....

Just to give you an idea on how I work, 
below is the loose pen sketch I did 
before applying the watercolours and detailing. 


Now I'm off to bed to hopefully
get rid of this looming migraine
before it gets a hold on me.

    1. Thankfully, the migraine didn't get a hold only with the help of medication though. I've been dealing with foggy brain side effects today. Thanks for commenting. xx

    1. It didn't...just dealing with foggy-brain from the medication side effects is all. The lesser of two evils. I'm glad you're enjoying the self-portraits...I'm trying to make them interesting so people don't get bored. hehe
