Visual translation of 'The Birth of Venus' by Botticelli
A school assignment done in Year 1 of Foundation Drawing Class. It is my own take and re-imagination of one of Botticelli's renowned works. I reinvented it with a darker and more gothic feel, replacing the beautiful with the ugly, the grace with horror, and the noble with the twisted.Yes, I am obsessed with drawing hair, fur and eyes.
