I noticed a lady wearing a scarf over her head and it looked rather pretty. It got me to thinking about where the idea came from so I found this article Not Just A Headwrap. It was an amazing story. Here is my drawing for today. I hope you enjoy it.

---Namibian women often use the Afrikaans word doek---

I've check-out your link to know more about the your motivation to create this amazing artwork. Very interesting. 'Doek' however isn't an original Afrikaans word, as it comes from Holland. A 'doek' (in English literally a 'cloth') is in fact a piece of cloth that is used as a neck scarf, head scarf or garment. In South Africa originally both the (old) Dutch and English languages were spoken. As in Holland the Dutch language was evaluated to a more modern version, the South African version stayed intact, so that it's nowadays pretty hard for Dutch people to understand the present South African version.

Excellent work again!

Your beautiful drawing shows the head covering many women wear all over the world. The earrings add to the beauty of this woman. Well done as usual Frank.
