To jumpstart my painting activity, after my many holidays, I joined the Master of the Month group at WetCanvas! The idea is to copy the work of a pre-selected artist. It’s Amedeo Modigliani for the months of September and October. I hoped to make a copy of one or more of Modigliani’s paintings and one in his style.
You can see my progress on that front in a post that I made at my other blog, draw the line. I’ll put the pieces, once they are finished, here. This is a copy of his painting of Elena Povolozky. After seeing the online reference for the painting as well as a few others, I’ve realised that paintings in the copy of the book that I have are very very dark 
If I copy another it will certainly be from an online reference.

Lovely painting.
thank you Bob
Hope the show went well.
Yep, you definitely got Modigliani. My parents had several of his prints when I was growing up and their essence is sort of etched in my soul. That group sounds like fun.
Thanks Jana
I’m drawn to his work. The group at WetCanvas! is superduper fun. Have a look and maybe join in?
