My ArtVenture: Acrylic painting: "Do not be sad!"
Today I want to share with you my acrylic work that I decided to dedicate once again to children's topic. Like many of us, or better to say, every of us on some period of our life have had acquaintance with this beautiful fairy tale and popular story book with main hero Winnie the Pooh and Hundred Acre Wood with ist inhabitants.
Since I was very little I learnt that cartoon and loved this little family, the bear Winnie who was very curious, helpful, always was involved in adventures. His little friend Piglet, who always follows Winie and does everything together. Eeyore the sarcastic and pessimistic donkey friend. I liked him and hoped that Winnie will be successful one day and makes Eeyore one day happy, but it never happened.
I am not sure if you aware that this story was created by Alan Alexander Milne, who was an English writer, primarily playwright, because he lived in early 1900, he served in both World Wars.
The story about the Winnie he created for his son, Christoper Robert Milne, who had all the characters as stuffed toys. Hundred Acre Wood of the Pooh stories derives from Five Hundred Acre Wood in Ashdown Forest in East Sussex, South East England, where the Pooh stories were set.
As he was working for a British Humour magazine “Punch” since 1906 there was first poem called “Teddy the Bear” published in 1924 and appeared in London Evening News on Christmas Eve in 1925 in a story called "The Wrong Sort Of Bees."
In our family the love to that stories went from one to another generation therefore, I wanted to share with you my today’s painting of that remarkable bear Winnie the Pooh.
My colors:
- Cadmium Red and Yellow
- Cyan Blue
- Burnt Umber and Burnt Sienna
- Titanium White
If you noticed first I made a bench in my sketch but later I decided to change in into a small table and put a flower bucket to the left :)
