Pencil Vs Camera - 22

I took this photo at the Gay Pride festival in Brussels a few days ago.
I also made the rough sketch. It was nice to see so many happy people!

Pencil Vs Camera - 10

This is a photo I took from Montmartre's hill in

Paris, France. I also made the rough sketch.

Pencil Vs Camera - 9

This is a view of the countryside in Belgium.
I took the photo and drew the sketch (I wanted
to make a very simplified composition on
the paper to match the landscape).

Pencil Vs Camera - 8

This is a view of Utrecht from the Dom Tower, which is the tallest church tower in the Netherlands, at 112.5 metres (368 feet) in height (I've lived 7 months in Utrecht). I took the photo and drew the 2 sketches. It was kind of hard to hold the 2 pieces of paper with one hand... :)

Pencil Vs Camera - 7

.

I took this photo in the "Palais des Beaux Arts" of Lille, France (I also made the drawing)

I've represented on the paper 3 of my most favorite paintings:

- "The Third of May 1808" by Francisco Goya (the painting is much bigger in the real life)

- "The Birth of Venus" by Sandro Botticelli (the painting is much bigger in the real life)

- "The Gleaners" by Jean-François Millet

The big Eye in the centre of the composition is something I added because what would visual art be without the tool to see it? In my opinion, the human eye and brain and the way we interpret art are even more important than the artworks themselves. The model is my sweet Marta.

The Eye

By Peter S. Quinn

Here I am or if I am
The eye of seeing all
Some of it is a scam
As it's not on the wall:

3 of paintings favorite
Is a pure fantasy play
1 left out deliberate
The Shooting of 3 May

Eye to see another eye
Of model Marta - my dear
Artists now have a try
And draw a picture of her!

Pencil Vs Camera!

This is sort of experimental. I'll be posting more
crazy creations in this style in the coming days/weeks.
I drew the sketches and took the photos.

Reality and Unreality

By Peter S. Quinn

Reality and unreality
It made me laugh
To be or not to be
Are the times epigraph

Everything you might see
Could be a sketch rough
Comprehending its duality
Is the world a bluff?

Endurance in durability
Wishes of arty autograph
On to each its infinity
Draw and photo half to half

Leopard

This is another circlist creation. I wanted it to look a bit "wilder" than my previous circlist works. I digitally applied each circle on a black background (I made them appear wider, so it was a bit faster than usual) and I didn't really pay attention to symmetry or details.
