Windswept



This is what you get when you stand on top of a mountain admiring the view......very wind 'swept' hair!
I used a recent photograph as a reference but I did have to use artistic license and add a bit more hair for effect. 
The view was absolutely breathtaking and well worth the walk up ( Cozzo Luminario 4,959 ft).

My interpretation of 'swept' for Illustration Friday, mixed media.

Fun page. That almost works for the newer EDM challenge of hair when you wake up. Now if this was you just leaving your tent for the morning....

This is so great. The hair just brings back memories of hiking and getting your hair blown around this way.
