Catherine recreated the <em>Irises<\/em> painting by Vincent van Gogh and we love it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Catherine\u2019s painting not only pays homage to a master, but also showcases her growing confidence with expressive brushwork and colour mixing. A brilliant study and a testament to how classic works can inspire fresh, personal interpretations. Well done, Catherine!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">I was inspired by the article \u201c10 famous artworks you can recreate at home\u201d &#8211; I chose the irises (even though it was not among the 10 chosen) as I have tried to recreate this before but failed! It\u2019s not an exact copy as I didn\u2019t draw it out, but I under-painted roughly in acrylic first before using oil paints. I used board but will perhaps paint a version using the irises in my garden on canvas, as I think canvas will hold the thicker paint better.<br>Catherine<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"825\" src=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/catherine.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32015\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/catherine.jpg 1020w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/catherine-768x621.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/catherine-770x623.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/catherine-360x291.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"background-color:#4f697e\">If you would like to receive a roundup of all of our blog posts once a week to keep you inspired in your inbox, why not sign up to our newsletter.
