Astral

I decided to rename this drawing as it develops, because it's based on Sonia Ryiel's signature hairdo, which an old Adel Rootstein catalog for the Sayoko line of mannequins referred to as the "Astral." I always found that amusing because to me, it seemed less ethereal and more cheesy!  But of course, after nearly 4 decades, it's so vintage it's retro-chic! So Astral it is.

I love how solid and massive the chunk of frizzed hair is...
