Wagonized

This week I had the pleasure of visiting France Belleville's blog at wagonized.typepad.com. The thing I liked the most about this blog was that with each sketch there was a description of why the image was significant and what medium was used to complete the drawing. A lot of the images chosen were everyday people, places, or things most of us can relate to. I especially liked how France blogged about him visiting other blogs and made an attempt to sketch an image which inspired him, from that particular blog. France's artwork is familiar and is presented clearly and neatly. It shows a variety of artist techniques. What makes the artwork stand out is that he takes such simple objects and shows them to have such detail. The image above caught my attention because it showed youthfulness, innocence, and some how it made me think of a time period in the past.
