So as promised yesterday, here are the paintings I lovingly crafted yesterday. Well finished off at least. Both works are part of my 'Piranesi Reimprisioned Series'. 'Pink Dotted Gateway' is based on Piranesi's Prison etching 'The Drawbridge' and 'Piranesi's Frustrated Lamp' is based on his 'Pier with lamp'.
If you have not seen his prison etchings I urge you to go have an eye bath in them. SERIOUSLY. Oh is that a handy link to them way down the bottom of my post? Maybe...
Piranesi's Pink Dotted Gateway, Oil on Canvas, 80cm x 60cm.
This work below was finished as well.
Piranesi's Frustrated Lamp, Oil on canvas, 80cm x 60cm
Like I said I had a superb day. Thanks for taking a look!
Heres the link to Piranesi's work. Its the Imaginary Prisons that hold my attention.
