Thank you everyone for commenting. I haven't posted this before Marjorie, and little did I know when I was drawing him how seriously ill he was.

A great action drawing Russell. You can almost hear the adrenaline and see the perspiration.

40cm x. 50cm charcoal. I drew this a year ago as part of a series of Welsh football legends. Joey Jones sadly passed away on July 22nd. He spent most of his career with Wrexham but was a European Cup and league title winner with Liverpool. He also played for Chelsea and Huddersfield Town. He made 72 appearances for Wales. To all Wrexham supporters he is a legend.
