Did a search for ‘paint’ because obviously you can’t search for ‘art,’ and found nothing. Not sure if many of you are gonna care about this sort of art, but here we go anyway!
I’ll just start things out with a few and if there’s interest/demand I’ll add more and/or take requests (I can “acquire” high-res versions ).
Sure sasmaster that image belongs. I’ll mostly just be posting some older stuff. Feel free to post really old, newer, whatever. Famous, not-so-famous. Paint, drawing, sculpture. It’s all good. The reason I posted that Joan of Arc is because, as you said, it looks impressively real. I’ve never heard of the artist before though.
Dali :tup: Some of his stuff reminds me of Escher, or maybe vice versa.
Here’s a question. With popular paintings, you can often find hundreds of slightly different pictures of them on the net. Like these two Van Gogh Starry Nights. Both are silghtly different than the one Mixha posted. Which one is more accurate in terms of color?
The darker one is the one that I’ve seen in every art class i’ve taken, however, it’s usually more white. it’s somewhere between, because you can see the brown in the painting of the tree on the real one.
chuck close’s self portrait - arcrylics on canvas (this paiinting is fucking HUGE too. it’s about 10 feet tall)
hanson’s cowboy - oil on canvas.
those are the two that i was orignally looking for.
another favorite of mine, i don’t think i can post on this site because of hte nudity, but check manet’s olympia. i know something about interpretting this painting that hasn’t been published just yet. but when it gets published next year, manet scholarship will literally get thrown out the window.
