One of my favourite artists is Klimt, I really like his delicate portraits and use of colour, especially the deep purple and gold hues.<br />When I was at high school I really liked designing clothes and I still have some folders with nearly 500 drawings at my parents. When I take a look at them now I feelthey're just copies of everything on the magazines back then but I'm still amazed at how much work I put on them and wish I could concentrate (and draw) now the way I did before!<br />Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05768386916902381178noreply@blogger.com
