Art Challenge recreating tradition This task is one

Art Challenge: recreating tradition This task is one that the whole family can get involved with. You may have seen online that The Getty art gallery in America set an online isolation challenge to recreate traditional artwork in the home using any materials, objects and props you have to hand. Look at these examples. Some are light hearted and fun. You can see the people involved really enjoyed searching for colours and textures displayed in the original work. Others are much more thought out and detailed with lighting and poses almost perfectly recreated.
