The Bolt

This is a painting I did in highschool. Definitely one of my best paintings! I'd originally done an oil painting of a barn on the same canvas, which you can still see evidence of near the top, but decided it was u-g-l-y! This painting is taken from a detail of Fragonard's The Bolt. I absolutely love Fragonard, mainly for his habit of including a "steamy" under- or overtone in his works!
