Basilikoi Paides portrait
Added 2023-08-18 09:43:41 +0000 UTCI drawn young Hephaistion. This time we recorded a little time lapse of the drawing. I have attached the mp4 to this post if you want to take a look! I always draw in this way.
When I draw Basilikoi paides (Macedonian royal page), I refer to terra cotta statues like this one. If you want to know more about Basilikoi paides, I recommend reading the paper by Carney and Sawada!

Thank you for looking at my drawing!
I hope you will also read the papers of the women historians I admire.
