Research and Inspiration: Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec
















I love the work of Tolouse la trek, His painting have always fascinated me since I first saw the famous poster for the Moulin Rouge. I love the way he captures the atmosphere of a room and the character of a person. There is so much detail in his work, especially in his sketches. I want to capture this sense of atmosphere within my drawings either for the use of colour or by the background I choose to include. I havent started to use colour in my sketches yet but I am thinking of playing with the idea of colour in the place I have drawn, I want to either convey my loud, bright and colourful style as the inspiration for the colour or take specific colours from some of the photos I have taken. This is an idea I want to play with.......
