Paintings of artists from Poland?

Is posting art 'spamming'?

There are a couple of photographs already in this thread; it's surprising you didn't go off on one when they were posted.

@jon357, it is spamming (or trolling, depending on the intention, I guess) if you're confusing people by posting photographs in a thread about paintings and you're not even informing that they're not paintings.


I haven't noticed any so far.


Why do you have to be such an ass?

I'm sure that given a very stiff upper lip, years of counselling, an iron will and fortitude, a Xanax prescription and an emotional support dog, they will eventually get over the sheer trauma of seeing art applied to canvas, board and paper by a whole variety of media, even; projected on to it rather than traced on by a wizened old man using a camera obscura or perspective machine.

If they do really well at the counselling they may be able to progress to gouache and ink.

@jon357, again, why do you have to be such an a$$hole about such a simple thing?

I don't like it when people mislead others regardless if it's RuSSian propaganda or scammers on Facebook posting AI generated images as real watercolour paintings in order to get likes.

If you're too lazy to make a thread about photography then next time at least be honest enough to inform people what you're actually posting.

Remember.Paulina, this is not a thread.

Just as this is not a pipe.

Moise Kisling 1891-1953
L'homme A La Pipe, 1916

@Paulina, I found the picture of the man with a pipe because of the "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" reference however unwittingly I've found a Polish artist I'd barely heard of and hadn't really looked at.

Mojżesz (Moise) Kisling was born in Kraków in 1891 but moved to Paris when he was a student and never returned. He specialised in female portraiture, however he did self portraits too, like the one above. Likes red, doesn't he...

This wouldn't look out of place as a Xmas card. I really like it.

One of my favourite Polish paintings:

No, too much bare flesh, not suitable.

She's talking about the pic of the house in the snow :)

Ah, this wooden villa, so appropriately lit and with a Christmas tree in the garden would be a perfect Xmas card. That's true.
