Here are some non-original Old Master Copies completed to practice the methods of the Old Masters.  Although I believe learning the art of painting pictures is a life long process, doing such studies and copies is instrumental in learning about what makes a successful painting both in terms of technique and composition.

"Portrait of a Man in a Black Hat"  after Rembrandt

"Joanna of Aragon" after Raphael

 Portrait of "Haesje van Cleyburgh" after Rembrandt

"Her Best Friend" after Emile Munier
