Claude Lorrain (1600 – 23 November 1682) was a French painter, draughtsman and engraver of the Baroqueera. He spent most of his life in Italy, and is admired for his achievements in landscape painting. Rodin was a huge fan of his works, featuring his paintilly style in a few of his sculptures, notably this portrait of him which was executed in 1892.

I always wondered how sculpts would look like if painted. This started when I was told that the sculpts in the metope of Parthenon where painted and what remains today is the decoloured marble after many ages.
Some times I just try to paint, but in other cases, something provocative comes into my mind and I follow a more creative path. In any case, enjoy!
