This is the ethnic series sketch of a real person [sort of] of the Egyptian Prime Minister Ibrahim Mahlab that I saw in the BBC news. He is a "public figure" and so is considered all right to paint him or sketch him. I generally do not make exact images of anybody, and most of the time, the sketches or oil paintings I designate as #ethnicseries [ethnic series] are not real people but people I created with pencils, pens, inks or paints. Probably of the approximate 1000 art "works" I have created [for my own purposes] only about 20 of them are of real people. I watch the news for ethnic groups clearly identified and close up enough to discern clearly their features so I can draw from it, then paint it with an authentic looking "costume" that a native to that country/ region would wear. I have created hundreds of ethnic series sketches and about forty oil paintings for it also. You can see many of those on my Picasa albums at https://picasaweb.google.com/gloriapoole and also https://picasaweb.google.com/gloria0817. This is a quick sketch only that I drew in ink while sitting at my computer studying it on screen, and then painted it just as quickly in watercolors. A sketch is merely intended to make a quick impression of a person, or idea, or thing so it can be repainted into oils or acrylics later. A sketch is to a finished painting as a rough draft is to a final manuscript. Sketch:painting::rough draft: final manuscript
Below are some symbols that represent me Gloria Poole, RN artist also known as gloria0817 on web AND OTHER WAYS I WROTE MY NAME ON WEB FOR YEARS.
My signature I signed with digital ink and apply intermittently to blogs and sites of mine for this year 2015. I also sign my signature in paint or ink and sometimes pencils on art I create.
One of my photos of my dip pens, nibs, and mortar and pestle to grind pigments with for painting. I do that occasionally just to vary my techniques and to improve my skills in understanding what produces what colors.
This is one of my photos of my studio corner of my home office in Missouri. I have begun a new oil painting and I am letting the background dry in some before proceeding.
This is my left hand holding one of my crosses [necklace] as the Southern Baptist church shows them without any graven image of JESUS. I do not make nor worship no bow down to idols, or images of anybody,especially of GOD in Old Testament [Yahweh, Jehovah, Almighty GOD= names] or of JESUS the GODhead in the flesh of the New Testament in accordance with Exodus chapter 20 in the King James Holy Bible.
This is my photo of U S flag to remind all I am a US citizen by birth with all civil liberties including the first amendment.
This is a set of copyright notices that became needed when someone stole photos off my E5 camera while it was in my possession as always. They stole them via the servers of Tmobile and I wrote more about that on my blog post yesterday on https://gloriapoole.blogspot.com.
This is my copyright notice for this blog and all content of it from the get-go.
