Coat and Hat Man


It so feels like fall, and fall is the time of opportunities. It's 72F in the afternoons, and 48F at night, perfect sleeping weather and perfect going outside weather. Yesterday after school, I swam laps, walked the dog in the woods, did some yoga, and started three little portraits. They all made me really happy, even though I don't think this turned out all that great. It was the PROCESS that made me happy.

  1. Love this--love the wash and the speckles, along with the crosshatching. Glad the process was a good one.

  3. This is really great! I don't think if you might know this. But we had an english lesson wayy back in 7th grade, The gumdrop affair. The lead role was a detecitive called Addison Barnaby and his illustration in the book looked exactly like this!:) And what's more ironic is a famous dialogue of his: "Everybody looks like somebody else" :)
    Great work though!
