Shit Howdy!

watercolor in blacks and silver
In the late 80s Western was in. All of us had a pair or two of cowboy boots. My favorite ski hat was a black cowboy hat and the piece de resistance: a bolo tie ( this just happens to be black onyx). Either piece alone or in combination just happens to give you a little attitude as well. I am planning to revitalize a little cowgirl attitude when I move to Denver. It is the West after all. Maybe a little 2-step, a little plaid shirt wearing and a little "Shit Howdy!" Maybe not the dancing on coffee tables. I hope those days are gone.

Winter hat

It's a little cold in the morning when Sophie and I go out for our walk. This sweater knit hat keeps my head warm and it is cute. I am practicing sketching hats.....they are not so easy. My friend and teacher, Jane, suggested the "frame" on her tutorial post. check it out Lots of greys and whites in this watercolor. I hope you like it
