Allan,
Degas is one of my inspirations.You have done a wonderful job of capturing not only the color but the feel of the painting. Your brush work is quite lovely.

This is very nicely done, Allan! I especially like how you've caught the plane change in the temple.

Thank you Sharon, Linda and Kim,
I have always admired Degas for his elegant sensitive brushwork.
There is so much to painting in oils, so many different ways to use the paint.

Allan, I recently saw two exhibition of Degas work, in Rome and in London. I was again enchanted by his loose use of the paint and the armonies of the colours.
You really managed to replicate his atmosphere.
Did you learn a lot in doing it?

You did an outstanding job on this Allan! Indeed the likeness and the mood of the painting is there for 100 %. I should love to see an original work of yours in this style.
Regards
Jan

I can only echo what Jan said. This is very impressive, especially as it is quite a difficult task to "copy" freshness. And you have. Bravo!
