My Aunty and Uncle asked if I would paint them a picture to go in their living room and they particularly wanted warm colours with reds and oranges. They found a painting on the Internet that they liked and asked me if I would do something very similar. I don't know what medium the original was painted in but I used acrylics.
I find it good practice to recreate art that I like and admire because I always learn something from the process. It makes me look more closely at all the different colours that the artist used to create a certain effect. I certainly can't copy the painting exactly and that is not what I aim to achieve. There is something about sunsets and silhouettes that I love and I shall definitely be doing some more.
