| "Jessica's Renoir I" 16 X 20 |
It's New Year's Day! Here I am ushering in the new year with my last painting of 2016 and my first of 2017 since I finished today!
Pierre-Auguste Renoir - La Danse a la ville (1883) is the picture I worked from. Here is a copy of his work. I believe the original is nearly life sized, so mine at 16 X 20 is so small! But it will look beautiful on the wall!
As I work from famous artists pieces, I have learned alot. The time they must've spent on them! I can't imagine being so creative and capable that that is what ends up on canvas from their heads or a depiction of what they see.
I still need to work with a reference photo most of the time, though I hope to work up to not needing one at some point! For now, I'm practicing.. and practicing..... and practicing some more. I know that the only way to improve is to put in as many hours into it as I can.
In the meantime, I offer my work for sale to those who would like a real painting but need a reasonable price!
