A Basket of Ribbons

 One of our break goals was to look at art.  To accomplish this, I chose several paintings from the Art Renewal Center website and set them as the desktop background on my computer.  I kept them up until we all seemed to know everything that was in the picture - we didn't get through as many as I planned, but it still worked pretty well.

One we used was called A Basket of Ribbons by Christen Brun.  We decided to remake the painting as a photo - check out the painting here and see what you think or our recreation:

With sepia tone to match the painting a little more.
It turns out there are lots of paintings of people selling ribbons.  I guess it was either a popular career or one that was interesting to paint!
