Jim Morrison

A drawing honouring the poet and musician James Douglas Morrison, my favourite artist in the world. For sure many of you know him as leadman for The Doors, but he was more than that, he was a brilliant mind “in the body of a clown” as he put it. This was in fact my first realistic portrait (altough now it doesn’t seem all that detailed).
