I've been enjoying these creature quite a bit lately, and can't resist sketching them.
I posted this on Facebook the other day and a friend told me she wanted to buy it as a gift for her sister. I told her that I had done a few of them, and brought this one and the others over for her to see.
Although she really liked this one...
she decided to buy this one (which I posted last month) because it was in color.
So now I can say "SOLD" for this one.
Beautiful! These were dead when you sketched them, right? At the Boqueria market in Barcelona, I saw a vendor's booth with a bunch of these with their claws still snapping away! I wanted to sketch them, but it was too crowded. They're scary when they're alive (though yummy dead)! Ha-ha!
ReplyDeleteBoth great Joan
ReplyDeleteThese lobsters...well painted but oh so creepy and at the same time I feel so bad for them getting dumped into boiling water while still alive.
ReplyDeleteTina - I always sketch them when they are alive. By the time they are dead and cooked I'm too hungry to wait to eat them. LOL Don't they use the rubber bands in Barcelona? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteLorraine - Thank you.
Sherry - I feel bad...but not that bad. LOL They are my second favorite food after pizza. Thanks.
Congratulations on the sale! good choice!!!
