The Girl, The Earring, The Dutch Artist

So many teachers learn by painting the old masters, so I took a run at the famous painting by Johannes Vermeer titled, Girl with a Pearl Earring. The eyes are the most important part of this painting and I am pretty satisfied with my rendering of them. My pallet was limited to Ultramarine blue, Yellow Ochre and Naples Yellow, Burnt Umber and a Vermillion, I liked doing this one and might do it again on a larger canvas.
