  Copying at the National Gallery of Art

copyist program at the National Gallery of Art.
Currently I am copying the work shown below.
On the right I present the copy in progress.

Recreations

by Gerald King



 		 Now I can offer copies of my most popular paintings at reasonable costs. These recreations are  not merely prints. They are made on artist's canvas which I paint into with finely ground  oil colors.  I use standard glazing, scumbling and alla prima painting techniques to give depth, textures, and more vibrant color to each copy. Each is carefully tailored to capture the richness, mood and feeling of the original. The final work is protected with a picture vanish and does not need to be under glass.

Some of my original paintings are too large for the average home. The copies or recreations are usually in smaller standard sizes. You may request a specific size not offered in my list of available copies.
