For this week's #colour_collective challenge, the color was #sepia.
Did you know the word sepia comes from the ancient Greek, meaning cuttlefish, because of the color of their ink? So as it's #WorldOceansDay here's a really fast sketch of one:
Happy #StGeorgesDay, in which we remember a Greek, or Turkish, or maybe Syrian, probably fictional soldier as a symbol of everything that makes England great - stealing stuff & making a lot of noise about it!
Pictured: 15th century painting of St George from Ranworth, Norfolk.
Anastasis Scene in #Chora. Meaning ‘’standing up again’’ in Greek, Anastasis is one of the finest example of frescoes in the world. It is located in the semi-dome of the apse. https://t.co/ER4ah1J6yT
