As I made the final marks in this drawing, some lines by Claude Debussy came to mind:
The Colour of my soul is iron-grey and sad;
Bats wheel about the steeple of my dreams.
Fast asleep in the bustle of a major university building, she seemed to me both serene and melancholic.
Debussy wrote the lines in an 1894 letter to the composer Ernest Chausson.
