Josh in Sleep Mode X, A4 Sketch pad, Coloured pencils, 2009

This is number 10 in my current series on Josh in sleep mode. This is the first time I have used colour to do one of these. I was inspired after reading the entry in A DAY IN GOD'S WILL. I needed to be inspired and that post just did the job!



He went to sleep after lunch and an active afternoon and I really needed to be quick with this one because he changes gears very easily!
