Once again another piece of homework by Dr. Ray =3
And once again i have to apologize for causing guys a bad eye sight by seeing my poor drawing.
Here a piece of artwork that drawn by leonardo da vinci. Artwork name Burlington House Holy Family.
As you can see the artwork consist of 4 peoples, two women and two children.
From the first sight, i feel that this artwork are drew beautifully. But when i zoom in to see clearly of the artwork. I found out that it actually look peaceful and warm. Somehow like family that having a chat time together.
But i found out the woman from the right side seems showing out her finger pointing upwards and in her eyes seems making people uncomfortable. The baby child hands like touching the boy face, i feel calm in watching his actions.
Therefore, overall of this artwork is warm family love to me. Just that i dont understand why is some part of it like haven't finish drawn by the artist.
Leonardo did not finish many of his works. In part because he was doing so many things. And in part, because that was pasrt of his character. Possibly when he got bored with a project he moved on. This was a study for a painting, so it is not meant to be finished.
