Missed you, Sarah. Fun to see you participate in the challenge.&nbsp;</p> <p>My word. Your hair and make-up work beautifully here, and I LOVE the shoes.

A lovely modern and minimal perspective of the artwork. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-picasso-challenge---acrobat#post-1457070 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 14:53:29 +0000 Tanya 1457070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing interpretation!&nbsp; You nailed the color palette.&nbsp; Your hair is the most perfect accessory here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-picasso-challenge---acrobat#post-1457062 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 14:45:34 +0000 Anonymous 1457062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's perfect, Sarah! No need to do any contortions given the simple drama of that lovely long sweater, your hair and those marvelous shoes. You look like the acrobat in repose, gearing up for your next big move. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-picasso-challenge---acrobat#post-1457060 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 14:44:21 +0000 Ingunn 1457060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes! This is a great interpretation. You are right about keeping it very simple, and lucky you to have white hair. I have to find a way around that for my take on the Acrobat.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-picasso-challenge---acrobat#post-1457059 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 14:43:19 +0000 Sara L. 1457059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit!&nbsp; I like the white-out and then the long purple cardigan.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-picasso-challenge---acrobat#post-1457055 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 14:40:58 +0000 Carole 1457055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A lovely interpretation! The colors in your outfit perfectly reflect the painting and flowey lines of the cardigan, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-picasso-challenge---acrobat#post-1457052 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 14:39:17 +0000 Neel 1457052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my ! That is an exact match! And your hair and shoes certainly keep with the color scheme. Gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-picasso-challenge---acrobat#post-1457050 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 14:35:43 +0000 Jaime 1457050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit and interpretation. The white shoes with your hair work perfectly here. The colors really reflect the tones of the picture and I like how you used the cropped pictures to illustrate your interpretation. And terrific to see you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-picasso-challenge---acrobat#post-1457047 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 14:32:50 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1457047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sorry for being scarce lately... I was working some crazy hours on a big project that is finally finished! I couldn't resist coming out of hibernation for this challenge, though.</p> <p>My first challenge choice was Acrobat. I loved the super simple color scheme, and it helped that I had things on hand to match. I also kind of liked that my hair is white, and I wore white shoes, so I thought that it played into the effect that the painting has of every part of the body being white. I purposefully chose to wear no jewelry or accessories of any kind (except my wedding band) to keep with the stark two dimensional quality of the look. I also had fun cropping and piecing together some of my photos to create a two tone abstract quality that I feel the painting has. This is also how I see my outfit in my head... which I think goes hand in hand with Picasso's way of translating onto canvas, not what the eye sees exactly, but how he specifically wanted to portray the subject.</p> <p>Also... You'll have to forgive my unwillingness to do the actual pose from the painting. I am only willing to go so far for the sake of art! </p>
