I did a post earlier in the year when I went to Amsterdam over the summer and was lucky enough to see Rembrandt's work up close. I love the style of his work, especially the etchings he created. They look so modern to me and the dark and lights contrasts work so well.
In my own drawings I've tried to use the same free flowing gestural movements as he did, which is very challenging to not make look like Ive just rushed my drawings. I think I've developed my own style now, but you can see the influence of rembrandt upon it. I've not just copied his style, but used it to influence my own.
