Bucket Hat

March 20, 2010

Saw this old sort hanging around outside a newsagent. The shop wasn’t open and he waited around for about 20 minutes, not doing very much other than blinking, looking around and staring at me. Then he wandered off. What a story. I bet you can’t wait for the next installment.

Some people manage to make their own space, no matter how dense the crowd.


Dapper Dan

I have no idea if his name is really Dan. He may not even be all that dapper but he certainly has a style all of his own.

hat

Spotted this man on the train last week. Great face, lots of character and the hat was cool. Not sure I quite captured the face and what looks (in the sketch), like a bandanna around his neck, was actually the collar of his tee-shirt. It’s not often you spot someone wearing a hat like this and a tracksuit but today was my day.

Most people don’t notice, much less care about whether someone is drawing them or not. This young man wasn’t the happiest. At least, I don’t think he was happy. Hard to tell because I couldn’t see his eyes. Oh to be seventeen and angry with the world again. Not.
