Transcription of Manet’s Luncheon on the Grass by @rachelwilch
Welcome another selection of faves from our January 30SAL Creative Challenge. Day 7 the challenge was to transcribe Manet’s Luncheon on the Grass. A transcription doesn’t have to be a copy, it can be a way to take an element or concept and reimagine it in another form.
Some of these images were borrowed from Instagram posts, so please forgive the square format transcriptions of Manet’s rectangular composition.

For the last two weeks I’ve had the benefit of learning from Carlos San Millan. He is a generous painter. What took a while for me to grasp at first is now coming into form, and soon will be a V. Note. In the meantime, I wanted to send out some new painters. In the …
