Classical Construction by Dave Martsolf

Classical Construction by

Down the street and around the corner to home sweet home again classical architecture and the glory of Ancient Greece.

This classical construction pays homage to all the great Greek architects and artists who established man and his creations as suitable subject matter for the arts, and did so with great panache and style.

All hail Ictinos, Kallicrates, Phidias, Pericles, and his wife Aspasia, without whom much of our ideas of self empowerment might have been engendered by less cultured folk.

Classical Construction was featured in Urban Art in September 2009.

The original is for sale for $298 US plus shipping. Contact Dave Martsolf through Bubblemail or at davidmartsolf@comcast.net for details.

    Drawing on paper, what a pleasure, one of the only good things left about my job is drawing. What great vision you have, my friend!

  • Thanks so much, Syd. I do enjoy drawing just to see what comes out.

    Understated … love the result!

  • Hi Jude, Glad you like it. The original sketch is pretty heavy so the pastels still leave me thinking I should try a turn with a higher contrast and more saturated hues. Say, never realized there were so many groups. I’ll have to take a look and see if I fit anything more.

    thanks again!
