two collages after known paintings (still in progress)

i decided to make some studies of paintings, in this case one by spanish Ramón Casas and the other by the genious Georges P. Seurat. Of course my compositions varied a lot from the originals, but i didn't dedicate as much time as I should have, what i mean is that there are many differences in negative spaces, directions and proportions, but it was cause  started making a rough sketch with an oil pastel and begun collecting and pasting coloured papers, and didn't come back to the originals to review all that, just to compare some colours and work lightly on the shapes.

will try to pay more attention to that in the following studies, anyway these two are still in progress so maybe i'll make some arrangements... something i don't like at all is the missing part of the kid at the bottom-right in the collage after Seurat's painting, since it was cut in the book i used as reference...

values study finished

i think i finished it, it took me about 12 hours to make the whole drawing, and there even are parts where i now i didn't do ok, or that i could correct, but for a school excersie is already a little too much. thinking of the bunch still ahead waiting to be done...hmmm, i'd better leave this one alone.



Original image belongs to Tisi Garofalo - "Mother and child with two saints" I think could be a translation for its name)

i'm working on this image by Tisi Garofalo, making a values study. it took me about 6 hours to draw and fill it, using squares to help me draw the contour (i'm made to), but then i've filled it with pencils seeing at the printed image and it's still unfinished. i hope it won't take me another 6 hours to complete it. (it's only a 25 x 35 cm drawing...)
