Original Monet Styled Oil Painting + (process photos)

Hi steemians sharing with you an oil painting I did of one of Monet's pieces as part of my project.

Author: Hive account@iansart
Time: 2-3 hours
Medium: Oil on paper

I was inspired by the movement in the original piece I saw in the Musee d'orsay and wanted to capture this in my own piece. I began with basic tones and built up a few more on top through the process. I learnt this can be a problem with oils because they take so long to dry and can create quite a messy look when tones blend. I think its better to paint many tones at first and avoid blending them until the very end if that is your style.

Here is some of the process that went into it.

Thanks for checking this post out and for all your support!
