Tiger Stripes
charcoal and pastel
27.9 x 45.7 cm (11" x 18")

The model was prevailed upon to wear his tiger striped toque for this pose, not because the toque was of special interest, but to contain a mass of black hair which hid half of his face. He was happy to oblige.

Toques are now a necessity in Winnipeg if you're outside for any length of time. It's winter again.
