I made a reworked drawing/collage of Michelangelo’s sculpture of Moses. I had a magazine with a lot of ocean-related images so I decided to use them and a deep ocean color scheme to create a new image. I used oil pastels on black pastel paper and used photos from the magazine to make his hair and beard – I also replaced the blanket draping over his legs with photos of coral from the magazine. It took about 2.5 hours.
This is great! very colorful and inventive You turned Moses into Neptune!
The vibrancy of the colors and how they still maintain coherence is awesome. Unique subject matter 🙂
I love how you combined the collage with the drawing! The collage pieces really add to the piece as a whole, but I also like that you didn’t overuse them and made it a great balance of both.
