Drawing in acryllics, black pen and string




I have started about a month ago a drawing for my own choice as I am planning to apply to art college, so I have been continuing it and even if I still ahve a lot of work to do, I am satisfied with how it is proceding. The drawing is based on a man in front of the Centre Pompidou who was performing a small puppet show to earn some money and I found the scene interesting so I took a picture of it and started drawing. The drawing is in black biro pen, ocre, yellow, brown, white and black acryllic paint and 5 pieces of string. Below is the actual picture and the way the drawing is proceeding:

  1. Very nice - more of a complete project than a drawing though!

    You could develop the puppet theme further in your work. There is that shop at the top of Piazza Navonna that has loads of puppets - maybe some big , quick drawings of some marionettes? You could even sculpt puppets yourself...

  2. But this is not a project, it is a part of one of the drawings I had to do if I wanted to apply to art college.I am working on the summer project and I have almost finished it.
    I think I saw that shop is it where they sell also small statues of soldiers and old toys? Because I found that one very interesting too. However I never thought of maybe doing also a project out of it. Thanks a lot for the idea!
