So yea, what i'm doing for thesis

Sorry it took me so long to finally post something about my idea and definite plan. I wanted to first do the puzzle canvas idea where i make multiple odd shaped canvases that made the image of a female human body that was covered in tattoos and each canvas had its own tattoo and graceful composition. but that was shot down during a crit i had in my painting class, so i thought of moving to sculpture, i did a plaster cast of my arm and then cover it in tattoos, but it didn't turn out too well. then someone put the idea that i should to portraits of celebrities or political figures with tattoos. and then i took that idea to the next level and thought what about the Mona Lisa? or the David? Hannaline suggested i don't do the works that are that famous, maybe tone it down to the great painters such as Caravaggio or Rembrandt. so that's what i did. I'm replicating 3 paintings one from Caravaggio and Rembrandt and another painter that i can't remember the name of. but yea here are the originals


so i made up the canvases of the paintings and here are resent pictures of my work now
