Cable Knit Sketches and other Silliness

So it comes as no surprise that I adore mail.  Which also leads to my adoration of letter writing, postcard inscribing, and general sketch mailing.  Including the infamous "what I'm wearing today" pages that have slipped into a great many envelopes over the past year.

Basically you begin with the outfit:
Big Boots on a Rainy Day
And quick as can be, with little editing or perfecting, a never-to-scale cartoon is drawn, then surrounded by random commentary on the individual articles of clothing, particularly noteworthy bits on makeup and hair, and generally at least one notation on a gargantuan hand or other such drawing foible.

Really it's just frivolous fun.

So I thought to myself, "self, there must be several others out there with a need for a ridiculous piece of snail mail, you really aught to indulge."
And therefore I will.  Because really, everyone like to find real mail in their box, right?
Sooooooo...
The first FIVE bloggy readers to email me at kclarkstudios[at]gmail.com with their postal addresses will be the recipients of a random day's "Dressing The Part" drawing.  I'll post an addendum here as soon as I'm booked up.

WOW!
I'VE GOT MY FIVE SNAIL MAIL DRAWINGISTAS!
YOU LADIES HAVE FINGERTIPS LIKE ROAD RUNNERS!

Happy Rainy-Hail to you today!
What are you wearing to keep out the cold?
