We are the muts nuts when it comes to invetions/discoveries, oh and engineering lol. Let us not forget Whiskey, there is a reason why the yanks call it Scotch lol.

Everythingape Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 *Safe for work* Allow me to carry your thread on, Gunnar. What is the name of the artistè, and what is the name of this painting? One of my favourite paintings, which I myself have copied in watercolours.

Everythingape Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Sorry eddhead, not eylind earle.. This might not be a typical painting for this artist, I have seen avatars in RWG with bits of his paintings in though PS: If anyone here knows people who can replicate paintings like this REALLY good, I am very interested.

ryyannon Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 @ETA: It's a Dali. As for the title, all I can say is that it's not the Mona Lisa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everythingape Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 @ETA: It's a Dali. As for the title, all I can say is that it's not the Mona Lisa. HEHE! YES, it's a Dalì, I thought people would get that quite fast.. The painting is not one of his most famous, but beautiful none the less. It's called "Knights of Death" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugwash Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 YES, it's a Dalì, I thought people would get that quite fast.. The painting is not one of his most famous, but beautiful none the less. It's called "Knights of Death" It's obviously Dali (you can tell by the horse), but I have been avoiding this thread at work in case Gran posts more non-safe images. Anyway, here's a painting it's unlikely you'll guess unless you know it or the genre. Artist and title, please. Ignore the watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though he does not paint creatures quite so ghoulish.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
