Alright, so if you watched my first video this week, you know that this week I'm talking about the Getty Museum Challenge on social media,

2
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:17,120
in which people are recreating famous paintings, famous artistic works, with only things that they can find inside of their own homes.

3
00:00:17,260 --> 00:00:28,980
So it's a really great opportunity to get creative and really see what you can use in your home to make things look like what is in these paintings, the elements of these paintings.

4
00:00:28,980 --> 00:00:33,659
So my first example today I'm going to put up on the screen and you can see it

5
00:00:33,659 --> 00:00:37,799
is a portrait so it's just one woman sitting there in the painting she has a

6
00:00:37,799 --> 00:00:45,600
green background behind her and she's wearing a bonnet and it's tied beneath

7
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:50,280
her chin and she's also wearing a nice fancy shirt so it comes up it has a high

8
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:56,579
collar almost a turtleneck and there's some fluff and lace around that and

9
00:00:56,579 --> 00:01:01,780
she's in profile, so it's the side of her face that you're looking at in that portrait. So what

10
00:01:01,780 --> 00:01:07,140
I did in order to recreate that painting is I didn't have anything green to use as a background,

11
00:01:07,140 --> 00:01:14,180
so I used this dark blue blanket that you could see here and I hung it up on my wall. I had this

12
00:01:14,180 --> 00:01:19,459
green sweatshirt that I used, but the collar wasn't high enough because this is just a normal

13
00:01:19,459 --> 00:01:28,500
scoop neck collar. So what I did is I put this almost turtleneck underneath it and

14
00:01:28,500 --> 00:01:34,120
then I didn't have a bonnet to wear but my roommate Mary had this white bucket

15
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:39,640
hat that I put on and it does not have a tie you can see but what I did was I

16
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:46,120
took this belt and I folded it in half and tied it in the picture which will

17
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:56,379
give you this result. So that was one of my attempts at recreating a famous

18
00:01:56,379 --> 00:01:59,739
painting. Obviously you can see not everything is exactly the same but I

19
00:01:59,739 --> 00:02:04,480
tried my best with what I had in my home and I hope that it can serve as an

20
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,780
example to show you how to get creative if you decide to do the challenge

21
00:02:07,780 --> 00:02:10,139
yourself.
