When I take a paper and a pencil and begin to draw some lines, I always end up with something that looks like a skirted lady. This a blog about women with a skirt. This is a blog about skirts with a lady in it.

Fontaine de la Reine, Paris

After a little search on Google, I found this picture (1903) by Eugene Atget. It is the 'Fontaine de la Reine' or 'Fontain of The Queen' in English in Paris. On the corner of Rue St. Denis and Rue Grenata. Probably it isn't the Fontaine de la Reine of the bottle of water I bought yesterday, but you never know. Maybe the Skirted Queen is in the monument too.

Fontaine de la Reine

Yesterday morning, I bought (with two friends) some special Turkish bread with Feta in a Turkish bakery at the Brugse Poort in Ghent, Belgium. Tired, hungry and... thursty. So we bought a bottle of water too: Fontaine de la Reine.

Three Ladies?

Skirted?
Yes.

Ladies?
I don't know.

Maybe these three persons are just three friendly old women. But it also can be a bad trio of bandits looking for a bank to rob. Or a couple of canibals out of a tribe in a big dark forest where the granny of 'Roodkapje' lives.

Brrrr.

Red Caped Little Girl

A couple of days ago I ended up with this drawing: a scene out of the tale of Little Red Riding Hood or Roodkapje in Dutch. Roodkapje is a girl with a kind of a skirt, in fact it is a red cape.

This is a blog about Skirted Ladies?
Yes, I know.
It is not a blog about Red Caped Little Girls!
Yes, I know. But I'm shure that, in a few years, Roodkapje will be a beautiful young woman with a beautiful red skirt. She will become a beautiful Red Skirted Lady.
