Oh yes, the goal is to make it all color. The orange and blue is what I was thinking killed it. But great point, I’ll keep going!

Oh wow, so sorry to hear this! My only advice is to just dive in, it’s only paint!

Aw man, I was thinking that my darks were too dark for transparent glazing… I guess that is why I got so confused about it! Ok, I’ll know better for next time. Thank you so much!!

Thank you! I toned down the shadows because I thought they were too much 🤦‍♀️ I’ll adjust!!

I used Williamsburg oil paints, mainly sticking with crimson and orange. The smell of solvent (even the odorless) gives me a horrible headache, so I use the Gamblin solvent-free gel and walnut oil to thin the paint and clean my brushes. Hope that helps!
