[art, digital art] The Mona Lisa, Via MS Paint

1730.


(via Art Bistro) Here's why MS Painters continue to impress me. This is artist ElectricAsylumArt, producing the Mona Freaking Lisa in 2 hours and 30 minutes (the video only runs about 5):





I am always extremely impressed by people who can push elementary tools to the limit. There's no reason to reproduce the Mona Lisa in MS Paint ... except maybe the same reason Hilary ascended Everest.


Because it was there. Can you push this basic-basic tool to the limit?


When someone does, it's like Evel Knievel jumping the Snake River Canyon, only he made it.
