「レンガの壁とアイアンワーク」 のための習作 The practice for a piece, "A brick wall and an iron work."

以前にアップした「レンガの壁とアイアンワーク」を作る前に、試みとして作ったものです。

木製のピースにちゃんと粘土が乗るのか、そこに絵の具がムラなく発色するのか、また、その凹凸の表面に線が描けるのか・・・。

いきなり大きな画面にチャレンジする勇気がなくて、小さな画面で試してみた時のものです。

ジャンクにしてしまうのも惜しい気がして、作業台の前の棚にずっと立ててあります。

かすれた線で悪戯に描いた瞳に、いつも見られているような気がしています。

This one was made for a practice before I posted the piece titled, "A brick wall and an iron work," on this blog. It was challenging because I was not sure if clay fixes on a wood piece, if a color can come out as I wanted, and, lastly, if I really can draw lines on the texture. I was too afraid to try a big piece that I tried with small one instead. Although it was just one of  practices like you put them in a garage, I'm, somehow, attached to this one. Did I put it away in a garage? Nope. It's actually standing on my desk like a symbol or something. Sometimes, it feels like this puzzle is watching me with the grazed eyes.
