Chiasson WR#2


I really like the drawing of the first bull. I was looking around on the site, and I had some trouble recognizing the animals described, but this one popped out at me. You can clearly see the intention. The thing I like the most out of this drawing is the details. It is full of details around the head and body. I also really like the fact that they used not only one color, but many. The way they draw the fur on the back of this bull makes a texture that looks like real fur. What surprised me most was its size. It measures 3.5 meters in length. Something I discovered is if it had been painted in its entirety, it would have been the most imposing figure in all of Paleolithic art. They also said the upper portion is painted with a brush or swab, while the lower areas were created by spraying colored material which I find quite impressive.
