Puci is a CopyCat

Every now and then I'm asked, or decide, to incorporate some aspect of another artist's work/style into my own paintings. It's fun, something different, and revealing.

The following photos showcase 9 of my own paintings. Can you name the artists whose techniques I "borrowed"? (Answers are at the bottom of this post.)

1. Chihuahua Winnie, 12x16" original custom oil painting
