Painting by Ronaldo Macedo "Siblings"
January 2011 - I found this photo of Macedo's painting in a magazine and loved it. I'd like to be able to paint like this. And, since my classes are finished, I needed a new challenge. My sister gave me the idea of painting upside down in order to concentrate more on shapes and less on things. So, I turned Macedo's painting upside down and painted it. The result is in the next post.
