Hello Art Enthusiasts, here’s my entry for today’s “Artstorm Contest #34 Day3 - Theme : Bad Art - interpret it how you want.” So I thought “ ok, I’ll try and duplicate a famous painting, that everyone who’s an artist might know, I figured I only have fifteen minutes to draw a famous painting so when the time runs out, there you have it, a bad likeness of a great painting. Since I am a portrait artists, I thought to myself “ ooooooo... I could start on the famous oil painting of Leonardo Da Vinci’s, The Mona Lisa.” So her she is, you can hopefully see that’s who I was trying to paint here. I looked at a picture on You Tube, and began airbrushing quickly with my iPad Procreate App, the sky, then the mountains and a stream in the background. I believe I captured that fairly well, it took about a minute. Very easy with an airbrush tool. Then I sketched out her face , and made sure her features looked very similar to the actual painting, that was my main concern, because I wanted to at least make sure that you could see who she was. And the outline of her hair and body, was very important as well. I have done hundreds of character sketches in my life, so I knew I could do this quickly. Actually it was one of the easiest Artstorm drawings I’ve ever done. I ran out of time when I came to the hands, and when I really looked good at her I realized, darn her eyes weren’t looking straight at me, she was looking off to the side. I consider my drawing to be a “BAD” replica of the original painting of “The Mona Lisa” because her eyes are off. If you where to visit the museum where this original painting hangs, as you would look at her eyes and walk around the painting, she seems like she is following you. That’s one of the charms of this magnificent painting. Thank you @deemarshall for this awsome contest, and thank you dear friends for your loving support❣️
