I was thankful for the break after the end of 30 days straight in January! I’m restarting the posts now, picking up where I left off with 30SAL Challenge Day 14: Make a transcription of Nicholas Poussin’s The Triumph of Pan. In the original post I mention how Poussin didn’t make detailed sketches of his figures prior to painting, but instead preferred to use little clay figures. Apparently that sparked some good ideas for you!
