Description This was my final from Drawing 020, and a piece form my portfolio review. In this we had to either copy a famous piece of artwork or incorporate atleast one into a new piece.

For this I choose Adolphe William Bouguerau's Nymphs and Satyr[link] and Marcel Duchamp's [link] to function as my pieces to incorporate.

The original composition was going to include the women completely abstracted but I didn't finish in time. Sadly in lieu of women i added a few shameful trees and a happy cloud. I also snuck one of my character's in as the satyr, if you haven't noticed, it's Ottokar.

This kind of reminds me of Duchamp's piece of a woman walking down the stairs...
