I was sketching yesterday in Victoria & Albert Museum.
Here is the view from 1st floor to the museum entrance (with that cool
yellow light information desk).
Fantastic sketch! Great contrast between background and front. It seems the statues are intriguid by the yellow desk as well. There is a lot going on in this drawing. It's almost the beginning of a thriller movie! Very exciting. And haha! The first!
eh! How I missed this Fabulous! the yellow spot is the center of the composition from which all painting is developed, it is not a sketch is a perfect work!
J'aime ton style, très " humain", ta façon de transcrire, d'inventer, de colorer le monde qui t'entoure. D'un lieu un peu austère, tu en fais un battement de cœur. C'est magnifique.
Nunu the cat stepped on a plate of ink and then walked over some work of mine leaving cute paw marks... Unfortunately the end result was quite messy so I was experimenting with backgrounds today. (This is not the first time Nunu participated in art creation. I have an earlier work where paw marks are clear and well-positioned and only improve the work... If I find it, I'll post it here later.)
Went to Camden Beach yesterday with a bunch of artist friends. It is a rooftop with fine sand, deckchairs, beach huts and expensive drinks. It was a cold and windy day but at least it didn't start raining.
Flowers gone wild... I was testing how watercolor paper would work with my ink painting. Unfortunately ink always looks quite dull on it when compared to 'rice paper', which shows magnificent shades and nuances. But the problem with rice paper is that painting gets crinkled and needs to be mounted on a stiffer backing paper, which is a very difficult process. Currently I am sending my work to China to be mounted but that is time consuming. There must be soneone in London who has mastered the traditional Asian wet mounting technique?

True, there is a bit spooky atmosphere, didn't notice it before. Thanks Hedwig :-)

Thanks Roberto! It really looks like this, too bad I didn't take a photo. But the desk is gorgeous bright glowing yellow.
