After Monet

Description

Thursday was interesting. First it was so windy my palette flew out of my hands and onto my shirt.

I had just gotten that sorted out when it started to rain. We packed up our stuff and headed back to the college. By the time we got there the weather was beautiful, but nobody wanted to move again. We did another day of master copies.

This is from Claude Monet's The Cliff at Étretat after the Storm

I had a lot of issues trying to duplicate Monet's style, especially since we're working alla prima, so in the end I gave that up and instead tried just his composition and colour choices. I can't believe how many different colours he used in the cliffs!
