Close Up of "Venus and Ceres", "Freezing Venus "and "Ceres and the Nymphs" after Rubens



Rubens work is colourful and emotional. Using markers I drew thumbnail versions of his paintings.

Each drawing was done on a piece of copier paper, with some marker lines outside of the frame, made when cleaning the markers after layering colours.

Interpreting Rubens colours with the pens I had at hand (and adding some white acrylic paint in one case), made for an interesting experience and I am contempt with the results.

The series is representative of our repetitive, neon coloured, buy-cheap/sell-expensive culture.
