Drawing of the Day #4 - Portrait Month -- Bianca
Bianca is a stunning painting by William Holman Hunt; here's my drawing where I tried to capture the delicacy of this portrait.
Bianca is a character from Othello, lover of Cassio and often thought of as a courtesan. The oil painting dates back to 1868 and resides in a UK gallery.
I tried here to depict the intricacy of the painting, and the fairness of the model. This was a quick, impressionistic sketch, but I may work more into the lace and trimmings of her dress.
Original Below! What do you think?
This may be one of my favourite paintings of all time, my drawing pales in comparison!
The drawing looks really good. The patterns look fun to draw also!
Thanks Dane! Yeah the patterns were fun, particularly on the lute!
