Furriers & A Perfect Match

After a quick lunch at Paradise Bakery, I sat inside and sketched a mannequin in a furrier's window. The vest was a deep blue luxurious fur which "matched" (Illustration Friday) the designer jeans perfectly. After drawing so many "live" models, drawing a mannequin did present it's challenges.
This past year has been a period of considerable growth for me in many ways. I feel as if I am finally coming into my own. With each illustration I explore, I discover new things about msyelf and my work which has given me immense pleasure. Through self discovery, I have new direction and a path. Things are much more in "focus". I think "wisdom" would best describe knowledge of understanding oneself and ones surroundings. What a source of power and confidence wisdom brings!

I like the way you expressed the reflections in the window and the clean and simple lines of the mannequin.
Love how you have captured the light and reflections on the window glass. Very clever!
You've captured the light so nicely and I really like that bag.
She has a poise and confidence, too! Funny how what you've been thinking about has affected this drawing. It's so well done, M.
