dready art … what’s your ‘type’

Dready, Dready Art and Everything Dready

                         dready ‘the yellow scarf’ – 30×20″ – original commission on paper

a wife from oxford, england, asked me to draw this for her husband … and immediately, in minds eye, I saw the long scarf trailing behind …
