Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: It takes great skill and concentration as well as emotion to paint anything well!. Ive probably been more amazed by landscapes than portraits, pictures where the technique is apparent up close, but further back you would swear it was dirt or bark or whatever!. The technique is hardest to master and a great painter has mastered his technique!. someone who uses the paint cleverly and can flick it and roll it here and there to achieve the result!. Probably if a person chooses landscapes or seascapes or whatever ,it doesnt mean they cant do portraits, just means they are inspired by their subject!.Www@QuestionHome@Com what makes a good artist is the message they send people through their work!. no matter what it is, if they make some stop and think!.!.!.!. they're a good artist!. i'm more of an abstract painter but my paintings still have meaning to what they're saying!. even if everybuddy doesn't understand what they're saying the select few people who do are enlightened!.Www@QuestionHome@Com that is just an opinion!. every single piece of art and every artist is extremely different!. whatever you do, don't try to conform to a style that you think is better!. just paint what you feel and the things you paint will be full of emotion and real!. that is what sells!.Www@QuestionHome@Com it all depends on the thought behind the painting!. one artist may be better at realistic portraits while another have people that look like horses!. whatever the case, the reason of doing a painting in the first place gives it the glory it deserves!.Www@QuestionHome@Com As a lifetime portrait artist I can't tell you how many times I've heard it said that a portraitist isn't a "real" artist!.
