Copy of Ingres, All 9 Steps

Here's an image of all 9 steps of the copy of the Ingres painting, Louis-Francois Bertin. The step-by-step process shows the study of the technique of Ingres. This copy was done using primarily four colors: Yellow Ochre, Flesh Ochre, Ivory Black and Lead White. The portrait is just a fraction of the entire original painting, which hangs in the Louvre. Another copy of an Ingres portrait is well underway, look for it soon.
