So I tried out Realistic Paint Studio a while back, instantly bought the full version. It’s a really cool traditional art simulator. Here’s a floral study with the oil paint set up that I finally finished.

August calendar pages for early 1900′s by Theodorus van Hoytema (Dutch, 1863–1917).

Images and text information courtesy MFA Boston.

Last year, I was working through the months, posting these beautiful calendar designs by Theodorus van Hoytema and for some unknown reason didn’t post the ones for August - so here they are now….. a year late.
