I found these drawings in the same folder as the Four Little Maids I posted last week.
They have not survived as well. The paper has been crumpled and there is quite a bit of water damage.
Once again I found it interesting to look at something I'd completely forgotten about after an interval of many years. What struck me is the impression they give of the confidence and certainty of youth. I can hardly recognise in myself today the sort of person who could dash these off so quickly - and in ink, not pencil.
I think these sketches were done at the time of Charles and Diana's marriage. Their wedding made a big impression on me and I was still young enough to dream of having a fairytale event of my own.

What a beautiful dress! You and your mum both looked lovely in it. I had forgotten about drawing wedding dresses, but yes, I did that too.
I missed this post last time I visited so I’m glad I called in today.
