Omg. <3 I love and respect this guy so much. First time I saw him, I was sick at home in 2002 with a high fever watching TV and I saw the race where he and everyone else fell down except for this Australian guy, and Apolo like totally gashed his leg with his skate but got up and went over the finish line and got silver and got a gold medal in another event. And then in the 2006 Olympics he got more golds and now he has like five Olympic medals all together. :3 I read his book and he seems like such a cool person. He worked so hard to get to where he is now and he was close to quitting, but never gave up. It's awesome. For those of you who do not know, he is an American short track speed skater. :P

Anyway! This is one of my faster drawings. I started it on Friday night and finished it last night. Mmm. I'm rather proud of it except for the hair. :x
