Lewis Hamilton lookalike!




















It's supposed to be Lewis Hamilton but the eyes are not quite right. I just needed to get drawing again! Spring sprung quite quickly and last week it warmed up so much it was almost hot here in Geneva! So what with the weather and feeling good on my new diet, I wanted to be out and about doing things to shake off the cobwebs of winter.

The Formula One season is underway and was looking good - new rules have shaken up the old world order - but it's already been dogged by controversy and Lewis penalised for something that wasn't his fault...again. I'm not sure I can watch anymore but the MotoGP starts today and that's much more fun. This little brown Paperchase sketchpad is starting to look like a place for doing portraits so I'm hoping to catch a couple of those riders next.

A gorgeous portrait -- and you faded his hat into the page, which makes us focus even more on his face.
Again, amazingly refined work here, Felicity.
