Making of Black Bashi – Bazouk

“In this tutorial, I will go about how I painted a Master Copy of Gerome Jean Leon’s “Black Bashi-Bazouk”. As an artist, I feel like I can learn a lot by doing studies of the works of Old Masters, especially in terms of color. It’s important to note that when you’re doing Master studies, you shouldn’t just mindlessly copy a painting; Put thought into what you’re doing – ask yourself why did this artist choose this color as opposed to another, and so forth.”
