Hello,
This morning I had to wait a bit until a NGA facilities employee brought my easel to begin painting. So I set up my carrying case that holds all my painting supplies to prop up my copy near the original. As you can see, my colors are a bit more intense than the original's and I account the darkened image of the original to age, as paintings age linseed oil will darken some, dirt accumulates on the surface, and sometimes the paint pigments are fugitive.
As I move forward I will probably add additional glazes to the painting to get the two to match a little more than they do now.
Thanks for sharing in this process.
