Thinking about an ancient idol. π
Hello hivers, I wish a nice Monday to you all! I hope you spent an happy weekend and a good start of a new working week! β€οΈ
Our weekend was full of nice things and it was a very sweet weekend, but I will tell you more about it in the next days, I promise!
Today I'm here to share with you a recent sketch / study a painted on my sketchbook this morning.
In the following pics, you can see the final result of that one:
A detail:
Days ago, on a weekly newspaper, I watched some pics about ancient sculptures of different countries and my attention was focused on a one that represent a large face, so I thought to study how to paint a similar one in my own illustrative style and so this morning I made it. π
At the end, I'm satisfied by this result and so, on the next days, I'll paint a new one to add to my gallery on Artfinder.
The one in the pic is an oil colors painting on a page of my sketchbook (around 1500 gsm paper in A4 size) and, as usual, I took some pics while I was painted this funny "ancient idol" so you can see the process too:
I hope you like it and, if you want, stay tuned to see my next artworks and sketches!
See ya soon and stay safe,
Silvia

A potato personified! I love potatoes, we eat a lot of them during midsummer which is incredibly big here in Sweden. The new small potatoes are called new potatoes! It should be with herring
Like you, I love to eat potatoes! here in my area are not so big, but doesn't matter! :D Just to know, I'm cooking potatoes for today's dinner. β€οΈ
I don't just like it, but I love it, you are very creative, if not for the eyes I would said I want to have the potato for dinner πππ lol, good job
Thanks so much! β€οΈ
