I saw this image on a postcard I picked up in Lille, and *had* to draw it. It was so full of passion, I hope I got that down here, too. Original photo taken by Rob Goldman. I used a mechanical HB pencil, a softer 5B for the dark bits (that kept on rubbing away - grrr), a putty eraser and a tortillon blending-stick-thing. I might redo his hands, they look a little rushed, but for now... enjoy!
