Gustav Klimt (1862 –1918) was an Austrian Symbolist painter and one of the most prominent members of the Vienna Secession movement.

Today at the painting workshop at Verket I continued my work with Gustav Klimt's pictures. I started last time with my own version of "Woman with hat and feather boa", and continued today with "Water snakes I".

Today I tried to wrap my head around a bit mo0re details. I did some small water paints of some of the background patterns in "Water snakes I".

I need a LOT of practice! I've always loved Klimt, so to learn from seeing at his pictures is something I should have done a long time ago.


What I wore:

Thrifted top and scarf, jeans leggings from Vero Moda, cardigan from Cubus, Accent heart, H&M beige scarf, a vintage traveler bag and brand new Addidas snakers, soooo comfortable.
