artist challenge -paul cezanne

January 16th, 2015
I have the pleasure of hosting the first artist challenge for 2015 and i have chosen paul cezanne (1838-1906) the father of modern painting
Do a google as there is lots about him on the internet paul-cezanne.org has his complete works

so take a photo either inspired by his subject matter copying an image as closely as you can or use processing to give it a cezanne look
tag your entries ac-cezanne
challenge will run until february 4

Enjoy

This was hard! I used lots of grain in the post processing to try to emulate paint strokes.

@kali66 Hi...I'm new and would like to enter...How do I post an entry?

Thank you...
January 28th, 2015
@christineaz hi christine, welcome, the artist challenge is always inspirational. you must put the tag ac-cezanne onto your picture, you click the cog under the picture to edit if you need to do it after you post your picture. to post it here in this thread you instead click the three little dots under your picture to get a share link in the box, click and it turns blue then do copy and paste it here
January 28th, 2015
Tried a landscape this time
January 28th, 2015
@christineaz yay you are in to win! lol

@summerfield Would it be possible to be copied on future artist's challenges(if that is generally done)? I think it would be a nice way to learn more about artist/photographers...
February 2nd, 2015
@gratefulness i can see to that, artist challenge is great for that
February 2nd, 2015
