Three-Quarters, Lady in a Hat (c) Sarah Myers 2020 Pen on paper |
For today, two hats which make quite definite statements, and their elegant wearers. The first hat is a boldly stylish shape and carries a stripe across its jutting outline; the second is simply big and broad and would provide any amount of shade in a brash, sunny climate. However I chose to name the second drawing after the lady's short shirt-jacket, a bolero pulled over her light polka-dot bodice.
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.
