Pink (Floyd)

Midnight Dreamer Studio This is a portrait that Meg Murray asked me to draw....it is for Laurie Crouse (both of them are here on AW)...Pink was a wonderful companion for Laurie and I know he is missed greatly....I tried my hardest to capture the love in his eyes...its not perfect....I spent a lot of time looking at his picture in Laurie's portfolio and started to really feel his personality, i felt like he could be serious but also very playful, i never met him but I can totally see him being a goof ball at times....Pink I hope I did you justice!!! your love will be missed Pink...

Wow, you've really captured his soft expression and the eyes are cool. I love the way the head merges in with the page. Great stuff!

Leah, This is so touching, a reflection of your generous heart and love of animals. Pink's eyes are are a mirror into your soul as a wonderful friend to Meg and Laurie who both have found a way to find the opportunity in illness as a portal to their creativity and wish to give to others the wisdom gained through suffering and the courage. This is a beautiful gift to support these wonderful women who share their painful and uplifting journey through their art and poignant lives. I love you for this priceless gift so well deserved by these two amazing and deserving women.

I greatly admire anyone who can draw eyes in pencil. I have never seen any pictures of pink but I am sure you done her justice. Damn! I'm missing her already - and I never even knew her!
