It is said that drawing is taking a line for a walk. If so, you'll be amazed how far it travels in the hands of this self taught, talented woman.
Hasale Mañoso Jayme doesn’t use a pantograph , a triangular scale, or draws graphs on her reference shots. Just four things: a pair of eyes, glasses, her hands and a pencil. She looks at the subject, draws freehand, and with the simplest materials, manages to come up with these stunning pieces.
Easy? No. Brilliant? Absolutely.
This 70 year old lady simply inspires the pursuit of innate gifts bestowed by the Creator. The life in her works undeniably spring from the hopeful life she lives: surviving breast cancer, widowhood, and the rough and tumble of life in God's great grace. She is my aunt, my mother's sister.
Almost everyone wants to be famous for five minutes and will fight for one shot at any opportunity that bears the title "Got Talent".
With Hasale, there is no need for such.
All the love.
