Artist Emulation (2nd Post)

In trying to emulate my chosen artist, Edward Hopper, I am going to focus my final work on an oil painting. Hopper's style of painting involves lots of harsh contrast between dark and light colors that I will have to use. Also, as I am trying to create a modernized version of one of Hopper's paintings (Early Sunday Morning) that incorporates a large use of space, my composition will have to reflect the same use of space. Simplicity and uniformity will be another large theme in my painting that I am trying to get across. I will have to observe the details of both Hopper's painting and apply their concepts to the scene that I am painting. Stretching and exploring will be essential for me n this project because though the painting that I am emulating is simple, there are many small details and emotions that I will have to express.
