Monet's Water Lilies triptych is on display at the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art
in Kansas City. This is the first time in about 30 years the panels have been
displayed together.

If you don't mind me asking - how did you learn to paint / draw freehand like
that? Are there any resources you'd care to recommend?

(Faunus/9933) Thanks! :)

Awesome!  I love the style, very befitting the genre.  Thanks for posting that!
I don't think I have the talent necessary to paint freehand figures like that.

I've got a bunch of stuff online, but not sorted or labeled according to
whether it was done in the real world or digital, or with what software. :)

Here's something I remember off the top of my head I did with Artrage:

I don't usually do color, so that's unusual.

ArtRage seems really neat, but having paid for Painter I generally stick with
that (I bought it back when I was a student and now the upgrades are kinda
sorta affordable-ish).

Is any of your work posted online? I'm a computer art junkie and love browsing
other people's galleries as inspiration, hoping I'll be able to do something
publish-able someday myself :)

I my copious spare time I've been trying the exercise of painting Zen 'enso'
circles.  It's surprisingly difficult to create one that looks even remotely
perfectly circular.

Faunus@rss.iscabbs.com — Tue, 29 Mar 2011 08:22:00 -0500

I use it with the Gimp on OS X and Artrage, and occasionally PShop or Painter,
though my copies of those are pirated and I prefer to work with "legit" stuff.

I also have a (ridiculously cheaply acquired) small Wacom graphire tablet,
which I use more often, because the big old Intuos is the size of a laptop all
by itself, so it's more of a pain to haul around.

Faunus> I see the post was from 3 years ago, but what did you end up doing with
your Wacom? I adore mine, I use it with Painter (Fractal Design/Corel) and love
it, though I haven't really created anything display worthy yet.

Gespalder, thank you for the information.  I'd seen a billboard last night
warning folks to look out for some stolen art, and neglected to follow up on
the details.  You sated my curiosity and gave me points to read on.

Wow! This latest art theft in Paris is huge!
The guards on duty were not paying attention and the alarm system had not been
working for months.
Estimated at between $100 -300 Million.
A Picasso, a Matisse and a Moglianni (sp?)

John Public >>  HOLY CRAP, you are my new best friend!  That's exactly it.. and
yes, I suspected the documentary was showing only a part of the image, and
since my version of it was a slice of that, I'm sure the reproductive quality
was totally meh.  Thank you so much!

Elena@rss.iscabbs.com — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 00:21:00 -0500

Looking for some help, if possible.  I was watching Banned from the Bible on
the history channel and saw a painting I really liked.  However, the artwork is
not credited except for a list of sources and private collectors at the end of
each show, and history.com specifically says they won't help you figure out
which piece is which.  Gah.  Anyway, through some manipulation, I got a screen
shot saved on my myspace page blog at under kelouisa, if the link doesn't work)

http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=157609838&blog
Id=493972011  and am hoping someone can help me identify it.  I've already been
through quite a few sources and haven't had any luck.  It may be a piece of a
larger painting, it may or may not be the devil as the narration indicates it
might be, I have no idea of the age, sometime in the last four hundred years
guessing from the detail.  If anyone's google-image-fu is stronger than mine,
I'd totally appreciate the help!  TIA!
