I tried recreating a cezanne painting

July Challenge Results: André Masson and Cézanne Copies

My challenge for July was to recreate – or ‘master copy’ – three different paintings. I failed. But not because I didn’t try. I just put too much on myself again, alongside this big project I’ve been working on.

Below are the original five books I had pulled out to choose master copy ideas from, but I ended up just selecting three for the month.

I’ve included the video reviewing my efforts for this months challenge at the bottom, and will pop back to add some photos once the ‘light is ‘big project’ is complete.. I’m getting there, but every minute helps!
