Two Sketches: Bright Sun and Dancer in the Wind

Bright Sun
(c) Sarah Myers 2020
Pen on paper

    Let's imagine what we would most want; a bright sun overhead, inviting us to bask in its light, or a warm wind blowing around us as we dance?  Or both?  These two sketches are about weather and our reaction to it; one lady reclining at ease in the brilliant sunshine and the other whirling in a breeze so strong her hair flies bodily into the air.

    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.

Two Sketches: Women in Graceful Line

Head of a Woman, Line Drawing

Pen on paper

    Here are two simple drawings; each is the head of a young woman, graceful, happy, just being who they are.  They are two of my favourites in this series of sketches.

   This pair of drawings is 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.

Two Sketches: Woman in a Tiara and Profile of a Woman

Woman in a Tiara

Pen on paper

     A golden tiara – resembling the diadems of Ancient Greece - ornaments the head of the lady in this first sketch.  The next drawing shows a lady with spiraling, fly-away curls and a light necklace of pearls trailing along her neck as she turns in profile.

   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.

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

 

The New Hat

Pen on paper

    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.

Two Sketches: a Pair of Elegant Ladies

The Elegant Collar

Pen on paper

   Two women in elegant clothing; the first with an upright collar, fit for the chilly gray weather today (although her earring in the shape of an upside-down pineapple suggests brighter climates) and the second with a deep back to her evening gown's neckline – perhaps an idea for a later hour tonight?

   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.

Two Drawings: On the Beach and At the Piano

At the Beach

   Which would you prefer to be doing?  Reclining in the sun on the beach or playing a splendid piano concerto with great concentration?  Two horizontal sketches for us, much rarer in my sketchbook than drawings using the vertical orientation of the page...

    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.

Two Sketches: Woman with Crown of Leaves, Woman with Braided Hair

Crown of Spring Leaves

    A classical, almost Renaissance touch for today.  A woman with a wreath of spring leaves and another with a crown of braids encircling her head.
