Very nicely done.
The first time I saw painters copying famous works of art in Paris's Louvre I was shocked. I soon learned that it was common practice- but always at different sizes.

Cheryl,
Here's an idea that might be fun. Next time you're in the museum, try to incorporate the artist, what he or she is working on, plus the real thing being copied. A challenge, to be sure, but it might have possibilities.

Nice, there is something about artist that always intrique me to shoot them as well, I always love shots of a painter working, it is nice to get the scene as well but sometimes just the relationship of the hand to paper is really great too.
