Description Tesla here!

Here it is guys, the last lesson in Art Academy: First Semester! Fittingly, it's also by farthest the most difficult subject: A landscape!

First let me say that my version looks NOTHING like the one the game did. They somehow got these crisp, very reflective-like strokes on the water that made it look a lot like the real thing. They also used a lot more of the light green shade in the water than I did... or maybe a lot less. I can't really tell.

Nevertheless, I think I trounced them with my rendering of the boat and sails. I'm really really happy with how the main subject came out! It's really hard to draw fine detail on those tiny screens, and this game doesn't have an undo feature, so you really can't afford to make mistakes! Considering that, I think this is probably my best painting from the game yet. Especially since it never actually gives you any information about how to paint the background. You're left to figure that out on your own.

Enjoy! Look forward to more Art Academy paintings in the future! "Second Semester" features eight more paintings, each of them considerably more complex than those in this first set.

Awww, thank you ^-^ I still wish they showed how to get their specific effect, though...
