WOMEN TO DRAW

When I'm busy like I am now it's hard to keep up the blog. That's when I'm glad I have files of interesting people to fall back on. I just sift through the pictures and allow myself to be inspired. Here's a few examples. 

Let's see...okay, the first picture (above) is of Bridget Bardot. She looks great here but I can't forgive her for dismantling the bombshell era. She had a younger look than the bombshells she competed with, and looked good in casual clothes. She made funny bombshells like Jane Mansfield look overdone and old-fashioned.


Yikes! Here's (above) a harsh reminder of the darker side of life. What did this woman see that made her look that way?


Haw!


Here's (above) an anomaly...a plain-looking woman who's also photogenic. In comedies women like this are worth their weight in gold.


The caption to this picture read "Gwendolyn Brooks." Who is that? Anyway, I like the idea of playing classical music in a neat and orderly room while subway cars clatter away outside. You'd think a location like this would be hostile to musical thought, but my guess is that it's actually one of the most musically stimulating environments you could find. I'll bet Beethoven works fine near railroad tracks.


Here's (above) Tex Avery's Little Red Riding hood. In high school I used to think girls like this were incredibly sexy.


Also sexy are bored women (above). Why the heck is that?


And tall women....very appealing in my opinion. Tall women are said to feel uncomfortable when dating shorter men. They think shorter men regard them only as a kinky novelty. That might be true in some cases, but I vote that tall women should go for it anyway.


Mike is constantly struck by how ugly men are compared to women, and you have to admit that he's right. There's definitely a lot more beautiful women than there are handsome men. Nature makes them like us nevertheless, which is pretty nifty.

Wouldn't it be cool if there were more interesting, well developed female character personalities in animation? I think that's something that's still somewhat largely untouched in animation and I'd like to know why. All of these photos are great! I knew you would have a nice thought provoking post today.

I'm super busy too now that I've returned to college full time. It's okay, but it takes up a of time and energy. Really wish I had applied much earlier so I wouldn't have to commute for now, but I'm planning on moving out as soon as possible.

So many types of women! I never noticed till this post. Really inspiring.

Love Tex Avery's Red Riding Hood. Her design makes her look dorky and adorable. =3

Thanks for the photos from your funny women folder! I've added them to my funny women folder.

Also it's funny you bring up tall women's distaste for shorter men. There's a growing internet debate about it, especially in fitness circles, and after reading about that I searched the archive of your blog for reference. There's a great conversation about it in the comment section of one of your older posts.
