Assuming you got the necessary skills to pull it off, is there a market for trad paintings depicting the medieval era. I think that there is interest but when you consider how long it would take to setup and paint it that would elevate the price too much for most people interested in this kinda of painting. So now you are stuck with rich people and competing against modern art bs
that painting would absolutely not take long to paint, you worthless nodraw nigger
>>7836053Why would you paint someone's else artwork to sell when you are already an established artist?
Only women buy physical art now, and they only care what colors they think match their living room. That's how "modern art" took hold. They will sooner buy a $35 6'x4' mass produced canvas slop from TJ Maxx than pay whatever it would be worth for you to make something cool.
>>7836056learn english, nigger
>>7836053Pyw faggot
>>7836053One day gathering resources, exploring different ideas, composition, colorsOne day transferring drawing to canvas + underpaintTwo days painting background and subjectsTwo days adding detailsPayment for 6 days * 2 + material costsSo unless you somehow live for free it will be expensive enough for the average joe to pay for a rectangle with paint in it to put on his bedroomAnd that is considering everything goes smoothly
>>7836289>One day gathering resources, exploring different ideas, composition, colorsIt's 2 people on horses doing nothing with nothing behind them. The front horse is in the most iconic generic horse pose known to art. Both figures are in straight profile and have no actions nor expressions. There's not a single thing in this painting that you wouldn't have painted dozens of times already by the time you had the skill to paint it.>colorsNigger, it's literally just the basic red and yellow with a neutralizing blue that everyone learns first, it's self harmonizing.>payment for 6 daysSix days of what? You're not painting this for 48 hours, are you fucking retarded? Nobody's paying you to wait for the paint to dry, just work on something else, ffsI'm genuinely confused what you believe takes so long here, I've known boomer painters that would cut out and bash equestrianism magazine photos in the 90s, trace them and render them out in like 10 hours, not counting waiting for the paint to dry.
>>7836046You can tell Mucha was phoning this shit in, has none of the hallmarks that make a good Mucha painting.
>>7836289>daysslapping on some highlights is not a day of work, you could slap highlights on 20 paintings in a normal workday and still be halfassing ityou charge for hours
>>7836336What do you mean it is 2 people on horses? Are medieval paintings all just 2 people on horses? lol might as well just take a photo of the painting and print it instead if that's what you want from paintings of the medieval era
>>7836342>that painting>no, a different painting of a broader scope would be different!
>>7836340Where did you read highlights assfart?
>>7836345>two days doing detailcircle the details on the painting that would've taken you two days to add
>>7836343Are you really telling me that copying someone's work and creating one from scratch takes the same amount of time? lol
>>7836347>two people on profile looking to the left>basic walk cycle horses in profile>halfassed trees bob ross would be ashamed of if he shat them out in 20 minutesThat's your composition, retard. If you're taking a day to come up with that, sorry, you're mentally challenged
>>7836346Drappery folds, material texture, pebbles, metal reflections, shadow spots on the ground, anatomy folds>>7836349So I guess all medieval life can be resumed to 2 people on horses. There was nothing else happening at the time that can be explored. Shiggy shiggy
>simple portrait paintings would take artists multiple sittings in the past>"this shit would only take a day"The absolute of /ic/
>>7836349what the fuck are you doing in the two days of "painting background and subjects" if you haven't painted the fucking drapery folds yet?>pebbles>shadow spots on the groundlol are you retarded
>>7836356pyw
>>7836354>simple portraitsportraits are the most involved genre outside of grand scale painting>"this shit would only take a day"nobody said that, retardstarting to think you don't even paint
>>7836357
>>7836336People here overrate traditional pieces to a stupid degree, I would say they're being disingenuous but they're really just ignorant.
>>7836354Multiple sittings =/= multiple days of work.A day's work means 8 hours, because that's what a work day is. Sitting down do add a glaze is not a day of work just because you need to wait for the paint to dry, you don't get to demand a day's wage because you spent some unit of time on a painting that day.
>>7836362Looks flat compared to OP's pic
>>7836368it's a wip, I just don't have a pic of the finished piece with good lighting because it's winter
>>7836362>>7836370>says it wouldn't take long>posts incomplete art from 5 months ago
>>7836371>nodraw has no worknice opinions on painting, did you get them from a twitch stream, you cuck?
>>7836374>twitch>painting???
>[nodraw nowork intensifies]
>didn't argue against the painting taking long to finishYeah, yeah. Green text all you want your own work speaks against your words
>d-debate me about something I don't do!>t. nodrawlollmaothey're always so desperate for attention from a real painter sad
>>7836053I consider anything over 9 hours (full workday) as taking a long time.
>>7836382Nonny, you just proved yourself wrong by posting your own work you have been working for multiple months. I don't need to do anything
>retard still has no working comprehension of how painting works at all>still desperate for validation from his superiorsohnononono
>>7836370Oh hey this looks great. I do wish digital could properly replicate the beauty of trad brush strokes
>>7836389For digital I'd definitely agree, but a detailed traditional piece can take awhile.
