Thanks so much, Blue Rose.

I am WAY behind commenting--on the road in NY at the moment.

this has a real postmodern feel to it and also vintage. i just love this drawing, would love to see more portraits like this! have you done much portraiture, with pencil or paint? what is your favorite medium?

Mary Stebbins Taitt said...

Thanks, Laura!

Sigh.

I'm a Gemini, always playing around, never settling down. I also have ADHD which just exacerbates that tendency!

I can't say I have a favorite medium, but I was pleased with this pencil sketch! I did it in a concert, while waiting for it to begin, from an advertisement in the concert program. I was holding it all awkwardly on my lap so it's really a miracle I could draw at all.
