[QUOTE="kardinalisimo, post: 174886, member: 118"]Thanks for the replies. I know that sometimes you can tell by the hands if an artist is trained or not but at the same time there are many modernist/impressionist artworks by famous artists that have hands that look like done by a child. Those pices look more like studies to me. Really, how do you tell the skills of the artist in these examples? I believe he or she chose a more loose, sketchy like style rather than tried to draw a realistic looking figures that turned into a mess.[/QUOTE]
