Original artwork description:

a new knight with orange hair. It belongs to my "Knights" series. acrylic on board.

I've recently found how much I enjoy working on this theme. It happened when I was doing an exercise inspired by one of the Picasso's knights, from his very late period.

I enjoy working on this series because it's not an easy theme. Any little mistake damages all the composition. It does not challenge too much my drawing skills, but it does challenge my talent as a colorist. Every color, shade, every brush touch must be just the right one. Main inspiration comes from the El Greco, Velazques and Picaso's masterpieces.

Materials used:

acrylics, varnished, on board
