  • are questions permitted? anyway here, it goes - how did he capture all displayed in the paintings? I mean, to capture the smiling in the "MONALISA ", the living human creature, understanding what the artist wanted, was present. To catch those looks/ feelings/response - seen in these marvelous exhibitions- //??? procedure ///???? and thanks to Google for the opportunity offered as always love- me

  • @thkem23onijSb Hello! There's a short bonus clip on the DVD featuring the modern day artist (and Audubon admirer) Walton Ford attempting to recreate Audubon's technique for posing his subjects in the studio. It involved pinning the birds to a board mapped in a grid-like fashion. He combined this with his own observations of bird behavior in the wild and the result is the very life-like positioning/movement his paintings are known for!
