Beginning with the Old

Painting done for a color theory class in early 2009. The project goal was to pick a classic painting from a list of given artists and recreate it as close as possible(in respect to color). I picked Caravaggio's St. Jerome Writing(on top). For the project we were also only allowed to use three primary colors from either the masters or modern palette (Burnt sienna, Yellow ochre, Cobalt blue/Cadmium red, Cadmium yellow, Ultramarine blue) no white or premixed blacks were allotted. A week was given to complete the assignment.
