A new (not original) painting
I am attaching a photo of a painting that I COPIED from a wonderful artist, Catherine Grawin. I saw this painting in her studio and loved it! When I told her, she said, so paint it! I am not going to reproduce it or sell it - it will just be for my own enjoyment. I haven't copied paintings in a long time -- it's a great way to learn to paint in the beginning - the composition is already there and you don't have to figure out colors. It can be overwhelming in the beginning - at least it was for me - so much to figure out. Lots of teachers use copying as a teaching tool to beginning students so you can get comfortable with the media. Anyway, I love the painting and here it is . . .
