My inspiration is the Italian painter Caravaggio. His style was realism with oil paint. “The Musicians” is my favorite of his pieces. You can see the influence in my own painting in the dark toned background and the musician as the main focus. I painted a portrait of myself playing the violin as a way to showcase my two favorite activities, which are practicing violin and painting portraits.
