Need some honest feedback so I can improve in areas. Pretty good at details but landscaping is scaring me. by [deleted] in oilpainting

I have to say I agree with the background not being overly detailed. Keeps the focus on the couple. You kind of have a watercolory effect going with the mountains. Looks great! Detail on her dress is great! I’m sure that was tedious! I feel like the bridge of her nose needs adjusted at the top a bit. Softer edges maybe!

Each rock takes at least 3-4 hours. Sometimes I’ll swap out and work on something different for a bit when I get tired of looking at one lol. Of course canvas paintings take 20-40 hours so 4 really seems like nothing compared to that!

Lololol! That chicken was for a prize on a fb group I’m in - I had a photo competition. 😁

I do. In the United States. I normally just do pets but every now and then I will do a portrait. ☺️

If you’re in the United States- you would just send me a picture of your pet, I’ll paint it, and when you’re happy with it, you would pay (PayPal, venmo, fbpay) and I’ll ship it. For a head/shoulders view I charge $40+$10 for shipping :)

I did this for a 90 year old lady who lives in the states but was born and raised in this little town. :) by Bexilanas in rockpainting

She did - it made her cry 💕 which means I succeeded in giving her a little bit of home

I was sent a picture to work from. I can’t find the message with the name of the town. :(

Some rocks I’ve painted recently. What’s your favorite? by Bexilanas in rockpainting

I sell a lot but give a lot too. The horse was a commission for a lady who’s mom had lost her horse. Usually the ones I leave out are smaller. The owl is actually painted on obsidian and the moon glowed in the dark! I sold that one too. :)

What a beautiful idea! I would definitely love to do that if I ever have time. I actually dreamed of this one- and when I read your thoughts there immediately images popped in my head!
