People and character sketches

People and portrait sketches
Some times its nice to just people watch, but not in a creepy way, so im often drawing characters iv seen n the streets and embelishing them later.
Androgyny is a pet intrest of mine, a popular style in culture these days. Recently ive been devloping a character that has the qualities of the androgynous indavidual, the theories behind the view of a hermaphrodite attitude as proposed by jung and june singer have become rather good reading.
Though sometimes you just have to be vulgar, i was having a quiet drink in a pub down the side streets in cardiff and i could hear these three guys walking past the window, although i did not see them they sounded as silly and ridiculus as these three look.
This is a portrait sketch for a friend of mine which i embelished later to suite HIS personality. 
This image was done whilst listening to the singer Joan Armatraging ( think thats how its spelt proble not, will check latter)
Only just noticed that the men in the background are really up to somthing slightly odd.
