An Egyptian Stroller

my lefty Egyptian
What you get from watching a PBS special on the Pharoahs, and not seeing even one of them walk...*

I do like the colors - why stick with desert tan, right?
Not sure if I like the texture, let me know what you think.

*Done with my left hand, using Microsoft Paint (!)
and texturized/reduced via Photoshop Elements.

My 'Art Every Day' piece for 11/5



Just for fun - MTV video of The Bangles 1986 hit:
'Walk Like An Egyptian'
{3 min}
I'm sure that's really how those early types strolled...

  1. You can make some cool stuff using your left hand, nice job, I like the colors and the texture too. I like the added touch of a Bangel's video!

  2. The texture is cool! Makes me think of the desert.

  3. You did this with your left hand? From someone who is totally left hand retarded I am seriously impressed, besides that I love Egyptian stuff, have since I was a kid.

    I think the colours and the texture work great together, I would perhaps soften it up a bit so the Egyptian pops a little more though, just because my eye went straight to the colour and texture in the background and I'm sure you want the focal point to be the "walker".
