Sometimes, you go out buying and come home, look at what you've bought and realise that in the heat of the moment you might have spent money on something doesn't grip you in the same way after cool reflection. That's the not the case today. The more I look at these two pencil drawings by Elizabeth Hammond, (an art student in the late 1930s, early 40s), the happier I am that I bought them. They may not be perfect in their draftsmanship but they both have a certain charm and freshness that I find really appealing.
