"A Study of Mary Cassatt and Rosanne Kaloustian"
My art box
Acrylics

This was one of my assignments from painting 2 where we had to research two artists- one contemporary and one impressionistic. I found photos my dad had taken and used those as my picture reference. The top picture done in the same style as Mary Cassatt's paintings is actually me and my younger brother when we were in grade school. The door picture was taken in England when we took a family vacation there. The faces of the kids were so small, it was difficult to paint them with any detail at all. I'm not entirely satisfied with the door picture's arrangement- the picture is not quite balanced on both sides and the wall on the right side of the door doesn't look natural because the vines would not stop growing in a straight line.
