Seasons. Reflection from 2020.

 



Hello blog. Are You still here? It has been a while since we last met. But there is a reason. You know the pandemic Covid19? That is the root problem of the lack of posts around here last year. My moves have been very limited. Daily walk from home to studio and once a week to the grocery store. One would be very lucky to see any relevant street style on these short moments. I simply have not seen anything worth a drawing. No street style around.

But I have drawn other stuff. Like taking part in a nature history drawing course and taking part of Inktober on Instagram last October. Those were fun, but they are not street style. Therefore I have not much to bring to this table. And to be true my head rolls more and more around patterns, my true love. My handle in IG is @sanna_pyykko, if you’d like to look through the other drawing stuff.

The image of this post is one of the inktober posts. It tells a story of the fashion in the 80’s. The afro hairdo was very fashionable that time and it looked like this in Finland. One of the kind electric shock style. I had a cousin that was six years older than me. I admired her haido that looked exactly like this. But, to Finnish slippery hair quality it really needed a strong permanent to get this coiffure.

This year is the tenth since I started this blog in 2011. If the world stays as it is now, the anniversary will not be very bold. Let's see how it goes.

As the New Year begins, I wish You All Good. Stay healthy and remember to be your own star.
