Roman Soldier Revisited

Roman Soldier Revisited

I sketched in a session with “R” as a Roman soldier a few weeks ago. This morning he was back for a longer session playing out the same role in the same very convincing costume.

Barefoot Veteran

Barefoot Veteran

Proud,

disappointed,

too tired

to be angry,

anymore.

Remembering

propaganda

a younger,

courageous,

optimistic man

once believed. 

My thoughts while sketching “GE” as he posed in a costumed figure session I attended yesterday afternoon.

Finding Death

Finding Death

Playing the role,

interpreting the end.

Searching for clues,

recent memorie.

Surprised by the silence,

the void,

the lack of participation

provided afterwards,

by the dead.

From a session a few days ago with “MT” playing out the assigned role..
