Thank you! Lighting on skin is one of my favorite things to try to get right!

Makes sense, thank you!

👏👏👏

Thank you!

That’s what I’m starting to play with. My main brush is custom and solved most of my frustrations with my results. I need to learn more for sure but I’ve decided to let choke points in the response I want dictate when I need to take another step.

For me learning technique for technique alone seems to make my art feel forced.

I study folks like that all the time and am slowly letting there.

I used to watch Bob Ross religiously when there were still new seasons being released. A lot of his technique relies on the texture of the paint / canvas which is difficult to reproduce digitally. But when I do paint with real materials I channel my inner Bob first!

You deserve it! You’ve been through a lot, and it’s going to be alright.

I modified an existing brush to get what I was going for. Looks pretty good as leaves without being a leaf stamp.

Right? Feels like a place to just sit in the grass and listen to nature.

Thank you!

You’re welcome! It gave me a bit of peace painting it too.

Thank you!

It also killed between 10% and 100% (average of a 3rd or so) of populated areas every 10 years for about 600 years. So ~3x longer than the US has been around.

Thank you! I cheated by hiding the body. A Muppet with a huge head helps 😁

Thank you!

I’m reading and watching The Expanse. This would fit right in! Could be Venus.

Thank you! Me too.

Thank you!
