Outside
the Walls (Initial Sketch)
This
was the original doodle that lead to the painting of the same title I posted
here last week. I guess this was the original idea. I was just looking back.
The idea of walls feels so much stronger without the opening shown in the final
painting.
I
must say I do like the figures in the painting more though.

6” fountain pen on paper
I see the big face...maybe in the glasses looking at us thru the drawing...at the background...like someones' memory..
ReplyDeleteI think I see the face too..
DeleteI see a street scene, somewhere in the Middle East...perhaps Oman.
ReplyDeleteThe figures are all in national costume...
I can see this too. I think the scene has a more local feel of dress in the painting that followed.
DeleteIndeed the people are fantastic, which brings me to the middle where I can surely run through, I can can I?
ReplyDeleteThank you
DeleteYou can run through… The middle is where the opening will usually be. You can find the opening easier in the referenced painting.
