I loved this Renoir they have at the Rhode Island School Of Design's museum. In general I preferred their collrection of 20th C work to the impressionist collection but this one really spoke to me. Maybe because I love magazines so much!

Okay So I’m applying to RISD
And there are three drawing samples that are required of all candidates. “The first drawing must represent a bicycle.”
I read that sentence, and I was like UGHHHHHHHHHHH! Bikes I hate drawing bikes. So I decided to brainstorm and identify why it was that I hated bikes. Because they are cold, lifeless, rigid lines, emotionless, mechanical…etc.
So I thought ‘hmmn what is the exact opposite to these things?…Yes, a female figure. It’s curvy, an organic form, and has emotions latent. So… I decided to combine the two, merging bikes with its opposite qualities.
Also at the moment I was intrigued by a realistic oil painting I saw in Art in America (I’ll look for it) it was really brilliant. So basically you see the back of a beautiful young women(fully clothed) with very nice flowy big brown hair, and she’s facing towards the counter buying something. The old shop clerk(male, he has white hair like a grandpa) is finding the item I think it was a can or something she wanted to buy, so he technically is also facing us backwards. However we can see his eyes reflected through a mirror secretly looking at the young women through the mirror. It’s probably not ‘high art’ but it brilliantly captures the moment, and the gist of the feeling. So I was thinking it would make sense to combine a bike with the female figure as a fantasy. So basically its sort of like a bike repair shop fantasy. At first I was considering to add a shadow of a mechanic, but then I figured it might be too racy. I’m not done yet, but I’m posting it up, it looks VERY graphic now. But she has beautiful abs at least.
wish me luck, (eww. the more I look at it the more it looks like soft core porn) Well what should I expect? I’m drawing a bike repair shop fantasy right?
love,
