The School Of Bus Stops
New photo image……….. Title : The School Of Bus Stops’
I guess I should explain this image a little.
It started when I saw two school girls sitting on the grass waiting for a bus. It is an unmarked bus stop.
Somehow one of my favorite paintings by Raphael……The School Of Athens got involved.
You can see what happened……..

La Fornarina after Raphael
Another new charcoal drawing taken from Master works from the past. I am really surprised with this one. It reminds me of certain Picasso works.
Raphael was an Italian High Renaissance master and has always been someone I admire particularly his School of Athens.
My drawing comes from La Fornarina which is also known as Portrait of a Young Woman and was painted between 1518 and 1520.
Here is the Wikipedia link to see the original painting.

The woman is identified as the fornarina (bakeress) Margherita Luti, Raphael’s Roman mistress.

Transfiguration
Here is a new acrylic painting of mine titled Transfiguration on a 30 x 40 inch canvas.
This was inspired by a Raphael painting of the same name….. his last painting.
The Transfiguration by Raphael
I also like the Harry Potter reference to Transfiguration.
“Transfiguration is a branch of magic that focuses on the alteration of the form or appearance of an object.”
This has a close association to my painting too.
I think we all need a little bit of magic in our lives.
What do you think?
