Finally, this painting is done.
I have been working on it since early November in egg tempera class.
It was a VERY difficult painting and i'm glad to be done!
The Virgin of the Dry Tree
after Petrus Christus, ca 1465
9x12 egg tempera
(the original is tiny, I don't know how those artists worked SO small.. this was hard enough on a 9x12 panel!)

Some progress shots:
It appears to have turned out beautifully. I like the bright colors of the virgins clothes. They have depth.
