Anime Girl Playing the Harp Music Instrument Drawing

Written by Teresita Blanco (The Artsy Sister)

This is another silly anime drawing featuring a music instrument. The harp is a bit more common in comparison to all the other instruments I mentioned. It came in many different shapes and sizes.

There are examples of ancient harps in Iran, Iraq, Egypt, India and China. Other versions later appeared in the continent of Africa, and even as far as Ireland.

Needless to say, the harp has always been a pretty popular instrument in almost all parts of the world.

The oldest one dates to 3500 BC. It was found in Sumer. I like saying BC, instead of BCE. I also still consider Pluto to be a planet. The materials used to make the harp also varies.

The strings can be made of nylon, metal or catgut. The harp eventually became super popular during the Hellenistic period of the Greeks. Most of the harps have triangular shapes.

Due to its commonality, the harp has gained several different meanings. In Catholicism, it is believed that angels play the harp. In Ireland, it was used as a political symbol.

Also, there are plenty of coats of arms that feature the harp. As to be expected, the harp appears plenty in classical music. There are many different versions of it.

The drawing itself I made it with pens and coloring pencils. I got some random art supplies. I might make some new pouring paintings and even some videos. I can only make them when I have money to spare.

Otherwise, I just focus on making the books and the mangas. At least with the books, I do not need to spend any money in the development of them. All I need is my old computer, and a bit of imagination.

I hope you find this short lecture about the harp amusing. This is Teresita Blanco, the Artsy Sister. Bye, Bye and God bless.
