New Peloponnesian War studies

17July 2012

I have been reading Thucydides works on the Peloponnesian War again, in an attempt to gain a better understanding of world conflicts.  I see the Peloponnesian as a world war in that it had direct consequences on all of the Greek world at the time.  
These are a few simple ink studies for my Peloponnesian War painting.  I have started working on the total negative space composition, and I will have the compositional elements complete by the end of the month.  Maybe…
