Picture: Autumn rosary rosary

I bequeath to you the rose,
All full of light as lantern,
June butterflies and the dark,
The margins festive dictionary.
Hardly a wicket was opened,
In his basket, by himself,
Like the strings of a closed piano,
Buzzed and jingled inconsistency.
There are degrees of light and shade,
Straight wings beating,
Scurried rainbow visions
And along and across the beam.
Was clear and understandable
Closed-loop space —
The interweaving of lines, babbling spots
The flashing brachysira pairs.

(A. Tarkovsky )

The drawing is made in pastel on the sketch gouache and colored ink on thick textured paper.Halftone colors change depending on the lighting.Pastel is on the verge between drawing and painting and requires very good lighting. Then the infinity of shades appears, the game of translucent layering.
