Canadian Painting Forgery Project

1. Click the link below and watch the slideshow (click the bottom right icon to get the show started). Carefully read each slide, slowly and closely examine each painting.

2. Copy and paste each of the links (one is general Canadian painters, the other is for Nova Scotia artists) on the last slide.

3.Search at least ten of the artists. Copy and paste the names (and painting examples) of the ten that you explored. You can always do more....

4. Finally choose an artist whose work appeals to you. Choose one of their paintings that you would like to create an exact copy of - this is called a forgery (forgery: noun —
(the crime of) copying pictures, documents, signatures, etc. and pretending they are genuine).
Start an information file on your chosen artist (collect biography info, painting info, quotes and at least 5+ of their paintings).
