Ecce Homo after Caravaggio - Acrylic Study of Ecce Homo Behold Man on Canvas by Pennsylvania Daily Painter Pat Koscienski

Ecce Homo after Caravaggio
20x16
Acrylic
Ecce Homo was painted by Caravaggio c. 1604-5 and was done with oil on canvas. My rendition was painted in acrylic on canvas after Caravaggio...the upper left and lower right-hand corners of the photo is reflecting natural light from the window (it is much darker on the painting itself). It was done for Michelle Burnett's Challenge Following the Masters. This last challenge was to study the Italian Renaissance and choose a Master of that period and either paint something of that artist or a portion of it, or try to apply their technique to one of ours. I chose to paint this, not only for this challenge, but also to enter in the upcoming Easter Exhibit at Art and Soul Gallery in Lemoyne, Pennsylvania. This themed art exhibit entitled "Palm Sunday through Resurrection" will run run from Saturday, March 27th, 2010 to April 24, 2010. The opening reception will be Saturday, March 27th, 2010 from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm. This gallery is located at the West Shore Farmer's Market, 2nd floor, 900 Market Street, Lemoyne, PA. If you are in the area, stop in for some light refreshments. To see more of my work, both representational and abstract, visit my website at:

Matching Set - Original Acrylic Impressionistic Painting of a Child and Dog by Pennsylvania Daily Painter Pat Koscienski

Matching Set
6x6
Acrylic on Canvas

Matching Set was painted for James Parker's blogspot Windows to the Words Challenge. The challenge for February was Children and Pets - Matching Sets. Several photographs were provided if we wanted to choose one or more to paint. This curly-headed little girl with her curly-headed dog caught my heart. What a winning smile she has. The dog was very difficult to paint...so black, I had to really struggle to find the eyes and anatomical definitions like the ears, nose, etc. Unfortunately, even though I finally completed the painting by the due date, I was unable to get it off to James to have it posted on his blogspot.
