2 Comments The Red Room, Revisited
Prismacolor is hosting a contest on their Facebook page, where the grand prize winner may have his artwork appear on one of their 2012 tins. I decided to create a piece specifically for the contest. A few years ago we did a makeover on a small room in our house, converting it to a den. The walls were painted a rich terra cotta color, and one of the lamps was red stained glass. I nicknamed it “The Red Room”, and did a piece called “In the Red Room” (12″H x 9″W Prismacolor pencil on red Artspectrum Colourfix paper, 2007). Earlier this year I was thinking about some ideas for pieces and took a few photos for some poses, and one of these became “The Red Room, Revisited” (15″H x 10″W Prismacolor pencil on black Artspectrum Colourfix paper, December 2011). Here’s a picture of both pieces side by side:
