    Colorful history

    I was lurking on my colleagues’ blog when I noticed Brezo’s post: The Met: Chroma (I highly recommend you to read it!) when she visited The MET’s Chroma exhibition. Ancient Greek and Roman sculpture was once colorful, vibrantly painted and richly adorned with detailed ornamentation. Chroma: Ancient Sculpture in Color reveals the colorful backstory of polychromy—meaning “many… Continue reading »

    Peachtober Day 31: Sleepy

    And it’s a wrap! There were some ups and downs, and Peachtober have some of the most challenging prompts. I’m going to make a habit out of drawing, so you will still see more of me in November ? Continue reading »

    Peachtober Day 27: Sea

I was slightly concerned with the cat’s color as it can be super out of place, but it ends up giving a really nice… Continue reading »
