A Painter in Paris

During the last big storm, I got bored and started to look at photos I took the last time I was in Paris. I came across a series of photos I took of painters in museums copying old master paintings. I became inspired and the result is this painting called "A Painter in Paris".





12"x9" Oil on Linen Panel

    Very nice feeling to this painting. I like the way you repeated the blues in the shadows, the bag and the coat.

    So nice, Diane. Love how the dark of her head touches the dark of the painting in the background.

    Such a lucky artist to be painting in the Louvre. I really like the way his brush is that little sliver of light; makes for a great focal point.
