i decided to learn various different styles, in attempt to find mine.. (if there is
any...). besides, i think this is fun..!
the first project is to copy this 15th century drawing (top). the source is a book entitled "Illustrierte Geschichte der Weltliteratur" which meaning is left for those who understand German (i don't). i don't know to whom i shall give the credit of the painting for. so, i post the original as well.
i draw this with pen and then watercolored.
salam kenal yach...bingung nih gak ada identitas jelas hehe..

It's always fun to try other people's style.
ReplyDeleteBut you do have a sweet lovely style of your own, it's magical! I'll be back to see more of your work!
Sometimes I stay for hours searching for illuminated manuscripts in the internet (and in books) . It´s very important to me also to have contact with other styles of representation
ReplyDeleteyes, this is one of my first steps in the attempt to fulfil my dream. ha-ha. good luck, me.
ReplyDeletethis is a great idea - I would like to try it too. it looks like the original might be a woodcut, but you've done very well with the pen and ink
ReplyDeleteyes! lets try a new style every week, that'll be fun!
ReplyDeletecheck on my blog my attempt in the japanese style.
ReplyDeleteIt is fun to change the composition and some details.
