I, Gloria Poole, of Missouri and Georgia, am putting here a second batch of horses I drew and painted and signed as sketches on paper. This is to keep a promise I made on another blog of mine at https://gloriapoole.blogspot.com. I will label each sketch underneath the image so you can read about it.

Also, I drew another sketch yesterday and it in progress. it is in pencil so far and thinking on how I want to draw the background of it. I will probably post it to a blog of mine later, when I complete it, fyi.

Kentucky Derby and horse and riders by Gloria Poole of Missouri and Georgia

I,  Gloria Poole, am putting this  mini-exhibit is because every spring the Kentucky Derby, the Steeplechase, the Triple Crown, horse races take place in several countries including state of Kentucky and NY in the U S and in Great Britain.  I draw horse from time to time and usually about this time of year. Also, the sketch of woman in hat is because it's dress up affair at horse races and most women do wear hats to them.  I drew, painted, signed and named all of these sketches. The only one in this batch that is a real person's image is Zara Phillips of Great Britain, who is a world-reknown equestrian and also Queen Elizabeth's grand-daughter and a new mother recently.

Crowns, turbans & fancy headdress sketches by Gloria Poole of Missouri

I, Gloria Poole, am putting here  six sketches I drew, painted and signed that includes an elaborate headdress or title of the person. These sketches are some I drew in year 2007 when I found an old history book that had thumbnail size photos of real people from a different era of time but in their then-clothing. I altered them and enlarged them to make a sketch of them. I was just beginning to attempt to draw people since I had always drawn buildings or inanimate objects mostly before that year.  Since this is a sort of series of headdresses I am putting this as a mini-exhibition. Some of these have been displayed before on other blogs and websites of mine. See copyright notice below all sketches and info about me Gloria there also.

This batch for International Women's Week; sketches by Gloria Poole of Missouri

"Corn rows of Africa" sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri; March 2014

I tweeted the first sketch a few days ago, as I drew it from a photo the Met Museum in NY tweeted. It is not identical to their photo since their photo was black and white only. But I thought the hairstyle was intriguing.  I would guess it is most likely a housewife of Africa. 

The second sketch is an Ansara dancer similar to the costume I saw in the news. They are paid entertainers and they dance in public festivals and events. So, the 2nd sketch is a dancer.

"Ansara dancer" sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri

The third sketch is a gentle woman from Andra Pradesh, India. An owner of a business in a formalized "portrait". 

"Andra Pradesh" sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri ; yr 2007

The next sketch is the only one that is of a living person, known worldwide. It is intended to resemble Mrs Rouseff of Brazil who is their current President, and who has decided that Brazil will not kowtow to Obama.  She obviously is the most powerful woman of this group.

"Brazilian Pres Rouseff" sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri; year 2013. This sketch is the only one of this batch that is of a real person.

The fifth sketch is a Beijing farmer, growing corn.  I consider farmers to be some of the most important people on the planet because they feed the world.

"Beijing farmer" sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri; yr 2013

The last sketch in this batch I named "Brown Lady" because of her turban-hat and skin color. I did not know her profession, just admired the way she tied a scarf into a hat. And drew and painted a sketch of it. The hat resembles a real person's but I changed the face. 

"Brown lady" sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri. 

I, Gloria Poole, of Missouri and Georgia, am making this post about international women and their roles in life.  I drew, painted, signed and named these sketches and that is true of all on this blog.  This selection is about women because I am a woman and women are always in the news as if the male race didn't matter much on the issues of human life. There was an "International Women's week" recently and it was in the news, so this is my contribution to the cause of recognizing women around the world.

Batch2-Ethnic Series Paintings and sketches by Gloria Poole of Missouri

This is the second batch of ethnic oil paintings and sketches I, Gloria Poole, of Missouri & state of Georgia,  am adding to this mini-exhibition. I am trying to categorize them according to time frame, adding those I painted first to the first batch, then those in subsequent years afterwards. I tend to paint on canvas only when I have a very definite idea of how I want it to look, so draw, paint, sketches until then. I can and do create art with all artists' mediums: oils, acrylics, watercolors, goauche, tempera, inks. See title of painting or sketch below it. Also, the only one of this batch in which I tried to create a likeness of a living person is the sketch of Canadian PM S Harper. The others I created with a  pencil and a paint brush. The costumes often are similar to the authentic I saw in the news, however.
