Project Description

Master copies, good practice.

My dear art mentor, the brilliant Jeff Makin, tells me its good art practice to always work on a master copy and set me to my first project. A master copy of Johannes Vermeer’s Girl With a Pearl Earing.

For those interested in the great Vermeer here is a great reference site www.essentialvermeer.com

What I learned most? UNDERPAINT, UNDERPAINT, UNDERPAINT.
