It was accepted for entry and won a few Juror’s Awards in the Children’s category at the Provo City Library’s annual homegrown art show in 2016.

It’s really, really hard to get a faithful film representation of art that has a highly textured surface–faithful color, intensity, brightness, and a good balance between shadow to show texture and light in the shadow so that the former three aren’t obscured. (I wonder how well Google does this with their friggapixel scans of hallowed art works.) Maybe it would have been easier if I started with studio light instead of sunlight 🙂 This composite from many photos (from two different cameras) is my attempt.
