This
watercolour sketch is of a lady that I draw from time to time in an
attempt to get her illusive quality of confidence. Her image has
stayed in my head for a number of years. She was fascinating. I saw
her at a wine festival, and she was decked out in her finest. Her
clothes were bright and contrasting, she had used strong colours for
her makeup and her hair was spiky and stood out like in the sketch,
The colours were purple red and orange. She walked head tall and
proud. I would say she was not a day under 50! Even though the
colours were loud, she gave out the air of elegance. Oh to have such
courage to be herself, I always think of this lady whenever I get
nervous about what people will think of me. One day I will capture
her qualities, I am nearly there, but I am missing something.
