This has got to be the most challenging thing ever attempted using Art Rage.
As I mentioned in the General Chat section of this Forum on someones' thread asking "Where Has Everyone Gone" this is the painting that my first experience with Art Rage Vitae involves.
I decided from looking in a "History of Art Book" as a challenge to produce a digital painting of a work created by a historic Dutch master "Peter Paul Rubens" entitled "The 'Marrigage of Marie de' Medici to Henri IV of France'.
This digital image painting will probably take some time to complete yet as a start I am showing a start up. Will update as I progress and welcome suggestions and comments. This is a crude start up and will involve some time to complete or at least a point where I get frustrated and call it quits or cut off point. There is a lot of intricate fine detail in this painting especially the attire (clothing).
I have seen it mentioned here that someone should start a challenge and this might be an idea for such. A challenge might involve everyone attempting the same painting using a photo reference of some historical well known artist and see how close all that enter the challenge can recreate that natural media painting in an Art Rage digital format. Someone might find an interesting painting on line and place the link in the challenge thread here for everyone to use as a reference. This could lead to some really challenging experience and interesting results.
