Old hobby: drawing
Sep 11th 2011 06:37
It have a long time since I ever try to draw something!
Those drawings are about fifteen years old, I used to look at pictures and draw, mostly painting from renaissance.
It's not really well done, but I tried my best at the time.
When I draw without copying from another paint, it's usually the face of an old man! I don't know why, but since I was young girl I like old people's faces. They have more details I think!
I stopped drawing, and I never took this hobby to the next level.
This summer I thought about taking painting as a hobby again, and this time with acrylic paints. Since I never used color in my old drawing; I used only pencil, it was very hard.
There is a lot of videos on Youtube to teach painting's technics. That made me realize that mixing colors is not as easy as I thought!
The first one I draw rely on the "Madonna Della Seggiolia" by Rafaeollo. The second was from a paint that was in a book, but I don't know the author. The last is one of my sketching from my mind :))

A few days ago, I showed a friend an old drawing.
It has been (it's been) a long time since I ever tried to draw something!
Those drawings are about fifteen years old. I used to look at pictures and draw, mostly painting from the Renaissance.
Since I never used color in my old drawing, I used only pencil, it was very hard.
There are a lot of videos on Youtube to teach painting's techniques. <"technique" is a French word that never lost its final "que">
The first one I draw is based upon the "Madonna Della Seggiolia" by Rafaeollo.
I thought that all the words that finish with "que" in French, ended with "c" in English!
Thanks for the information!
J'aurais bien aimer avoir un bon coup de pinceau.. mais bon! :)
Le bon coup de pinceau va venir très vite.
You should redo all of the renaissance paintings of Jesus or Mary and the rest. But make them look more African or middle-eastern. :)
One day I plan to start learning Arabic calligraphy. And then I can write all my lang-8 entries like that. And people can spend years trying to read what it says.
And you should start learning calligraphy, it would be intresting to read about American football in Arabic with complicated style of Arabic calligraphy :D
