August Study - A Very Dangerous Beach by Jack Vettriano

This month's study has been suggested by Azra Iqbal. I'm excited to try painting it as I love Jack Vettriano's work as well. Have fun everyone!

Blog Mission Statement

A few weeks ago, a blog friend of mine, Azra Iqbal, painted a copy of one of Monet's paintings and I thought how great it would be to get a group of painters together and set up a monthly "challenge" or "study" of a Master work. I will post a photo of the Master work at the beginning of each month and the members will paint from it. I consider copying a Master work as a great learning experience so we will learn lots!

If you are interested in participating, let me know and I will add you as a "Painting from the Masters" blog member. All you commit to doing is painting from the Master work once a month. You will email me the photo of your painting and I will post it on this blog with a link to your blog or website.

That's it! And most of all...it will be fun! We will make new connections, encourage each other, learn from each other and continue to feel a part of this great online painting community!

Suggestions on potential Master paintings are always welcome, just send me an email!

Thank you for visiting and please join us!
