For this project we worked with acrilic paints and they were somewhat hard to use because 1. you had to mix your own colors and 2. the tended to dry fast so it was hard to blend with the already dried paint. For the project my artist that i picked was Henru de Toulouse-Lautrec. He was part of the the post-impressionist era along side some of the best known artists of that era. He mostly painted women, people in their natural working habitat, and he also painted posters. He used long thin brush strokes and i tried to show this in my work. At first i wanted to paint my cousin but the picture had alot of little details and i was having a hard time so i decided to paint my stop sign. In my painting i added some details and left some out. On my painting i tried my best on trying to mimic his painting style and his brush strokes. My painting isnt exactly as skilled as his but i think it looks pretty good and believe that my brush strokes are pretty close to looking like his.
