Pictures sims have painted

At first I thought it was fireworks, but then I noticed the fire on the ground.  His traits are just normal traits, but it is kinda spooky looking.

This one is a little dark, but someone is standing by the water and I believe that is a boat.  

that is a reproduction of Van Gogh's famous painting - Starry Night 1888 - I went to see it at Canberra (capital of Australia) a few weeks ago! My mum bought a print of it - but the original is so much better! It's really famous!

see Van Gogh's painting:

Leave it to me to be completely clueless about famous paintings!  It's not the first time it's happened, either.  My husband has pointed out famous paintings in the Sims 3 and I had no idea.

That painting is actually called "the Starry Night Over the Rhone" and was painted a year earlier than the painting referred to just as "the Starry Night" (Wikipedia).

Always need to keep these things separate!

I know about it, another thing school does to you  . Yet for some reason it was my English teacher who taught us about it...

Wow! I would never imagine there would be anything Dutch in the Sims 3! I'm nicely surprised!

yes well when i saw the painting in person it was called starry night as i recall. it even says on the back of my mum's print that it's starry night, painted in 1888. I know there is another, more famous version, but would my nation's top art gallery get it wrong? wikipedia isn't necessarily true.

Nah, probably not. Since they included the year it was painted I can't see why there would be any real confusion. Both are really starry nights.
It's just that in normal layman speech one could get confused if you say starry night, since, as you say, it is the one from 1889 that's the more famous one.

Haha, a lot of the paintings in The Sims 3 comes from the old (more than one Dutch) masters. I really wish they had put some M.C. Escher or Dali in it. That are my favorite painters. The work of Dali would suit a insane sim well, and Escher is than more for the genies ones.

I knew there was a reason why I take snapshots of pics and put them on here.  You can sure learn alot.  Thanks, that is very interesting, because I know absolutely nothing about art.

Has anyone seen any new paintings with Ambitions?

[pallyndrome]

I have found some new paintings, but I'm not sure whether they're from ambitions or not.

Not yet. I saw this topic was open again so I was hoping there would be new ones some people could have discovered.
But now you are asking: I thougth I saw a few new ones ingame, but that was just in a review movie for Ambitions. I could be wrong though, but I'll keep looking.
