Of yours, post #35, 57, 81 (looks charcol), 95-99, 105 doesn't look like paint, and there are more, but I think you get the point.

Now, pictures created by an artist would be a better criteria, but a photographer would argue that they're artists too, and that most other painters capture life just like they do, except the painter is slower.  If you required that it be by hand, then some of these might be digitally created and/or modified (I'm thinking of #35, but don't know one way or another.)

See, it's hard to define the requirements!

Paintings/Drawings. Is simple Cavalier.

You mean post~#150 Clavalier?

Tantale did not say that was included or ''added'' but was merely asking a question about it.

I just made this draft video about  these paintings:

do you think I should double the time of presentation of each painting?

ClavierCavalier

Yeah, it's a little short.

Baroque opera, right?

ClavierCavalier

Photograph at 3:39! :-p

I'm changing my guess from opera to just a orchestra song of some sort, unless they're just selections from an opera(s).
