Impressive Landscapes All Made With Microsoft Paint

For anyone that has used simplistic applications like Microsoft Paint, you’ll know their deep limitations, and their usually rudimentary results. However, there are some patient artists who use these tools to their advantage, spending hours creating mini masterpieces that defy expectations. Indeed, the creators of Microsoft Paint probably had no idea that professional level images could come from their simple programs.

Artist Christian Young is such an artist, his landscapes made entirely on Paint, and showing great use of shadow, depth, and color. It goes to show that the right artist can use just about any tool to create beauty.
