Two Sketches: The New Hat and Lady with a Flying Mantle

    And now here are two stylish ladies, one with a broad hat tipped just a little aslant on her head, in a way that matches her bright glance, and one with a cloak that flies out in the brisk wind blowing past her.  She reaches up to keep it close to her neck – this is an early winter day already!

    These two drawings are part of my special “sketchbook series”.  Their clear lines, a black pen following across a light sketch in pencil, make the portraits of women you will see from this procession of pictures; ladies with lively or tranquil faces, fashionable hairstyles and hats, and a sense of poise or grace.  It is a daily story, told with a pen and very occasionally with a line of charcoal; please enjoy the visual words that create their identities and expressions.
