I am taking an art class at our local art museum we had to choose a painting from the gallery and reproduce in colored pencil. It is a small piece 7.5x6" but still took me around 15 hours. This was one of the more difficult colored pencils pieces I have attempted! I did not use a ruler and it doesn’t look exactly like the painting, but I was very happy with the vibrant colors.

@junenez WOW! Amazing drawing. The colors are beautiful!
Is it on canvas?
Sonia
June @junenez , that is very vibrant. Painting another Painting is probably more difficult than the original source. You are starting 1-2 levels of abstraction or more. Great job!

Sonia,
Thanks! The original is oil on canvas and quite large. I did the colored pencils on white paper.

This is very good and amazing lines without a ruler. You’ve got an amazing amount of detail on a small piece….great work!
@junenez ….That’s certainly is a lovely painting, but I think you might have mistakenly posted the original??

Cathy,
are you being funny? no that isn’t the original.
Thanks ReetPetite. It was fun to do and a neat challenge
No sorry @junenez I wasn’t trying to be funny, I’ve just never seen that type of thick, impasto-like lay down achieved with coloured pencils before…. very impressive 
Oh wow - thanks Cathy. it is a lot and lot of layers!
Very nice, especially with no ruler, looking at all the straight lines I would have assumed you used a vanishing point with a straight edge, the colors are beautiful also.
