Back in highschool my art teacher always had interesting art projects for us. This is one of the first we did my senior year. The instructions were to first pick an orginal painting in one of the books she had. I chose The Magpie, painted by Claude Monet. Then we were to cut it out of the book and cut out three squares randomly throughout the painting. Next we were to glue the cut out squares on to a white canvas. Last we were to recreate the painting, matching the colors to the cut out squares so that they blended in with the painting, so much so that they were unable to be spotted. We also had to make it our own by removing specific features etc, I took out the barn, some trees and the color changed. This is actualy the second acrylic painting I had ever done, so it is definitly not as detailed and as well done as Monet's. It was probably the most difficult painting I have ever had to do because I had to make the squares invisible. Can you see them? Mine is at the top, Monet's is the second.
