Cezanne's Bathers Workshop

One workshop we did involved looking at two paintings, Bathers by Cezanne, and another one which I now can't remember, but it had a similar composition but depicted Jesus Christ surrounded by other biblical characters and some angels.  Below is Cezanne's work.


We also had a life model present, taking various poses from each of the paintings.   We worked in various media including charcoal and oil pastels.  The idea of the task was to learn to look at different elements and be able to work quickly to get down an idea of the composition.  Below are some of my outcomes.
