In the center, the Little Dancer, is a sculpture by Edgar Degas I saw at the Louvre.
I did this still life. Painting? Nope. At this National Gallery site you create your own still life. There are apples, oranges, books, vases, and everything you need for a still life. It's very interesting because you can change light, shadow and add what you want. I loved the mirror showing the front image of the dancer instead of the back. It is a Magritte touch I guess.
There are other activities at the site The Art Zone and children can have fun.

And here i was, mouth agape, thinking, "Anna painted this?!" - but then you mentioned the national gallery site :D
hehe
but it takes time to arrange everything, find the right light,... it's exhaustive... it took me hours and I had to try it over again many times.
Art is not easy...
lol
Hi Ana, I actually saw this post on Saturday night and meant to comment then but I ended up going to the National Gallery site and played with it for almost an hour! That's pretty cool and here is where I get to say "nice painting!"
LOL
I thought about telling you to go playing with it but thought it would be an insult.
hehe
Yes, isn't it a great painting? And I started taking lessons only two months ago...
lol
That is very nice indeed.
