Drawn in Autodesk Sketchbook Pro 7, took just about 4 hours.

OH MAN, my series of monochrome portraits arrives at INDIGO; the oft-forgotten color of the rainbow. Nestled away between blue and violet.
Truth be told, as a kid, I didn't believe in indigo. It always bugged me because it seemed too close to either blue or purple to warrant its own section of the rainbow. Plus, on a basic color wheel, there are only six wedges and indigo isn't one of them. Then, one day in my late teens, I found myself stuck staring at this one car. I didn't mean to focus on it, just to glance, but I couldn't look away, because I couldn't decide if it was blue or purple. The paint was perfectly in between the two. After a minute or so, I finally realized that this was the fabled indigo I had heard so much about.
And yes, I had a hard time finding a fruit to name this picture after that had the right color.
