For machine drawings I often use photos from magazines
and such for orientation...
So I thought: why not actually use parts of them in
the drawing?
Liked it, and did it again...
Out came a person in a fashionably oversized cardigan,
for which I happened to find a fitting quote in an old
book on Virginia Woolf: "I admire your women, your pale
women, with their white skin and fair hair..." - says
some guy, about the Bloomsbury women, in Leonard Woolf´s
The Wise Virgins - and goes on, to tell you the whole truth:
"but I despise them ... your women are cold and leave one
cold - pale hair, pale souls, you know..."
Which doesn´t bother her in the least...

That is a very good idea. The one with the large cardigan gives a new way of looking at it.
Love them, Heike!
Does the paper stay okay ???
Thank you... - depends on the kind of paper, Els, the more glossy the less it does oblige it seems...
Great pose and attitude. Your faces make the fashion sing.
now that is hilarious because i was about to use the word hilarious and then zoomed in and saw you had got there first. deep chuckling happening here. k.
Singing + chuckling... well, what else can one ask for... ;)
... and a note about me commenting elsewhere: having trouble getting through at several blogs (hello, Elizabeth, for example, that Anonymous commenting was me, checking if that does work...)
i especially adore the gray cardigan lady.. though i must say your faces make the outfits...amazing stitches..
I am loving the mix up,
and you have moved from imaginary to real world...
She´s a bookworm, that gray lady... - and I´m still mixed up sufficiently to be smart enough not to put all my eggs in the real-world-basket...;)
