INTRODUCTION
The Battle of Kliszów (Klissow) (Klezow) took place on July 8 (Julian calendar) / July 9 (Swedish calendar) / July 19, 1702 (Gregorian calendar) near Kliszów, Poland-Lithuania, during the Great Northern War. The numerically superior Polish-Saxon army of August II the Strong, operating from an advantageous defensive position, was defeated by a Swedish army half its size under the command of King Charles XII.

The project was made with the aim of printing on clothes. Main theme was Battle of Kliszów in 1702.
I used images of Augustus II the Strong and Charles XII of Sweden. Also I used images of Hussars and the Swedish army.
For each of the images I used Pallete Knife filter and then I masked them with Kyle's Basic Sable Inker brush (by the way, great brushes - https://www.kylebrush.com/). In results, I got brush marks effect, seemed unfinished.

The background is in the shape of Polish territory at that time. The red color symbolizes Poland and blood. I used Kyle's Basic Watercolor Round brush.
