Hello art gallery, this is a pencil!

[Tim Chmielewski]

For the second week in a row I decided to go back to the international
art gallery as I wanted to draw a couple of things.

I warmed up at home by drawing Michigan J Frog, as there is no other
cartoon character that wants you to draw it more than it does, and hey,
Michigian J Frog!

I had a go at drawing the following:
Guardian Spirit
Tang Dynasty
(AD 700-750)

(Similar to the one on the left)

Gorilla carrying off a woman (1887)
Emmanuel Fremiet

(One of the security staff liked my drawing)

The Kidnapping Horse (c. 1819-24)
Francisco Goya

(This was my favourite to draw)

Some other highlights from the gallery that I didn't draw:
Big Wigs (2000) - Nicky Hoberman

The Artist's Daughter (1927)
Augustus John

(She looks a bit surly having to sit for a portrait by her dad.)

I still haven't seen the complete collection so I may go back again. The
Australian gallery is just up the road also (I've already drawn from
some of the works there a couple of years ago.)

Thanks.
