Copying from masters

20/2/2019

I like to practise by copying masters from the past. This is from Rue Transnonian, by Daumier, 1834. At first sight it might be a Hogarthian satire on drunkenness, but it's much darker. It'a actually about a massacre of cirizens by soldiers, in their own hones, in Paris that year. I drew it with a Fude pen.

    I love to draw. I draw the area I live in, I draw London, and many other things.
