Painting a picture 1

Today I completed another painting session. I have been painting ‘Storm on the Sea of Galilee’ by the famous painter Rembrandt and I intend to give this painting to a friend. I am using acrylic paint because I am more accustomed to it, even though the painter used oil paint. Now I have painted the small details of the people and the boat and I intend to paint the sky and the sea last. I am really enjoying it, but it is something that requires patience and perseverance. I don't know how long it will take me to finish, but I know that I will have a different perspective on the painting than if I hadn't painted it. I find it fascinating how the painter manages to articulate light and shadow. I hope to continue soon.
