INSPIRED BY MICHELANGELO'S PIETA (A WATERCOLOUR PENCILS STUDY)
In this post, I will share a watercolour painting of mine with a spiritual theme. I was inspired by a classical work of art, a rather famous sculpture created by Michelangelo Buonarroti five hundred and twenty-one years ago. This is actually my second study of this marble sculpture. If you remember I already shared with you a watercolour pencil study of Michelangelo's Pieta here. That first study painting was made in A3 format while this newer study of Pieta is in A4 format. That's not the only difference between them. These watercolour sketches are somewhat different one from another both in terms of colour and composition. Moreover, these two watercolour studies are not identical to the sculpture reference itself, as I took some creative liberties with these studies. Obviously , the marble sculpture is monochrome and lacking colours. I used different colours in my studies of it and took other creative liberties. I might do another study of this sculpture some time in
