observational drawings~~~

this is a still life that i was drawing from

This is one of my observational drawing that i have been working on in an art studio in my town. This one is a complex combination of a group of chairs, in order to harmonize the wholeness, a round rock and a soft fabric are added. It took me almost 4 and a half hour to finish this construction. It was really hard to find the precise shape and combination. Of course, the real piece is a lot bigger than this image looks, the real work is 22 x 17 inches

Hints in using Artstor

There are many ways to find the images you’re looking for in the ARTstor Digital Library; a simple keyword search will often lead you to what you’re looking for, and an advanced search will help narrow the results. Wildcards can help when you don’t remember a precise name or title, or, conversely, when you are looking for something very specific. There are only four to remember:

The underscore (_) can represent any one character. For example, m_netwill retrieve monet, manet, etc.
The asterisk (*) can represent zero, one, or several characters. ren* will retrieve ren, rene, renoir, renaissance, etc.
The dollar sign ($) will expand the search to include terms that stem from a given root. $farm will retrieve farm, farmer, farming, farmyard, etc.
To search for an exact phrase, put it in quotes (“…”). When searching for the painting Le Moulin de la Galette by Renoir, enter “le moulin de la galette”. Also, unless your search phrase is enclosed in quotation marks, the order of terms will not affect the search, so searching for albrecht durer gives you the same results as searching for durer albrecht.
