Portfolio Version 2010- Paintings from Italy

So I am updating my portfolio for this year, and for the first section, I'm featuring the paintings I made when I studied in Italy last summer. They are recreated from paintings and I saw visiting museums as well as other works from some of the artists' works there.

This was the first piece, recreated from Filippo Lippi's work. I used an egg tempura painting style.











The next painting was recreated from Simone Martini's Annunciation and Two Saints. It was created with egg tempura and gold leaf.











The next painting was another annunciation piece recreated from Botticelli's work, done with tempura grassa.











Created similarly to the previous work, this piece is based off a Botticelli work incorporating my pets. It's still a work in progress, but it incorporates the process of egg tempura.
