Description This is quick drawing of Colm Wilkinson who plays Jean Valjean in Les Miserables. The darkest part in his jacket is wrinkly because the paper was cheap and to much lead causes it to do that. The scanner diminishes the darkness. I haven't ever done facial hair before and his expression was really fun to do! I will try to do Javert and the rest of the portraits later!

Instantly recognisable, my fave Valjean. Although I like the others too, Colm was the original, and made Valjean.

The finest Jean Valjean to ever cross the stage, Colm Wilkinson! Is this from the 10th Anniversary Concert? You captured his expression brilliantly.

If that's a quick one, I'd hate to see what the detailed ones look like. Seriously, this is excellent.
