Commedia Dell'Arte

Anybody wanna laugh?

For anybody that doesn't know, Commedia Dell'Arte is a form of mask theatre, known to possess the original archetypes of comical characters in all forms of entertainment. All comical characters from entertainment posses aspects of these characters, from Bugs bunny to Bart Simpson.

Anyways, I did some character designs of some of the characters found in Commedia (I made them impish too... not sure why.)

From left to right:
Arlecchino 
Pantelone
Dottore
Brighella
Pagliacci 

I would love to see some traditional commedia theatre, one day. Probably be hilarious.
Enjoy the show.
