museum copy, final

This is the final on "The Biglin Brothers Racing" by Thomas Eakins. It was fun to copy. My next copy will be by Whistler. Stay tuned. (See my copying blog at http://amyilenemann.blogspot.com/ for details, and subscribe to that blog for updates.

museum copy

I've been working on copying "The Biglin Brothers Racing" by Thomas Eakins. I chose it because I like figures, I went to school in Philadelphia, and I like painting water. I was shocked to see how dirty the painting seems to be. I'm painting mine as if it was clean. It's a challenge to see the colors.
