turns my whole world misty blue
Andrea Joseph’s Sketchblog
An update on this commissioned drawing here. I started step-by-stepping it a little while back (you can see the first stage in this post) but due to some urgent deadlines it has progressed very slowly.
On a personal level this really is one of the most important drawings I’ve ever made. Probably THE most important. The commissioner (is that even a word?) gave me free reign over everything – subject, size, materials.
Whilst that’s the best kind of commission it does present you with a different kind of pressure from working to a brief. But, it also shows an amount of trust that touches me deeply. This image just came into my head as I drove home the day it was commissioned. I have no idea where from. And, I LOVE that.
I’ve not only been step-by-stepping it here, but also with the person who I am painting it for. I take it to show him at various stages and we talk about it and what it means to both of us. He said it reminded him of Tennyson’s The Lady of Shalott (which again touches me no end). Not only do I love that poem but my all time favourite painting is Waterhouse’s version – SEE.
