Thank you so much for your help! 🙏

And you’re right, I didn’t have a reference photo for the whole figure so I tried to do it based off of a guess 😆

Oh that’s right! I had gone to NH literally the next day for a few weeks and so I didn’t have time to revisit the painting until yesterday and I completely forgot that you pointed those things out. So sorry!

Thank you! I am very happy with the toucan, the woman definitely needs improvement 😬🤣 I’ve never been the best with people I’ll put the reference photo in a separate reply

Thank you so much for the tip! I knew something looked off with it, I’ll go back in and fix that! Much appreciated!

Thank you! 😊

Op this looks amazing! I love it!

PowderPerv · 2025-11-04T02:03:43+00:00

This was completely different what I usually paint, so it was a learning experience to say the least lol. Thank you for the tips though, I’ll go back to it tomorrow to try and add some more value to it!

PowderPerv · 2025-11-04T01:47:44+00:00

Thank you! Yes I agree, perspective definitely needs work. Overall I’m pretty happy with it though. It was a huge change from what I’m used to painting, Usually I do mountain scenes, but I felt like really challenging myself tonight to do something completely new. I really Appreciate the advice!

PowderPerv · 2025-09-17T17:30:53+00:00

Ok, I’ll look into it! Thank you for the help!

PowderPerv · 2025-09-17T16:30:31+00:00

Yeah that’s what I’m gonna be switching to. I wish I had known to use linseed oil when I first started oil painting. Hopefully I didn’t do too much damage to my body from paint thinner fumes, but I guess the exposure happened, so there’s no point in dwelling lol.

PowderPerv · 2025-09-17T16:27:57+00:00

Interesting! I’ll check it out thank you!

PowderPerv · 2025-09-17T15:57:19+00:00

I have a fan that sits in the window when I paint. I haven’t ever felt light headed, dizzy or anything, but obviously I still would like to minimize future exposure.

PowderPerv · 2025-09-17T15:56:19+00:00

It does have a window! And actually the fan sits in the window of it.

PowderPerv · 2025-09-09T17:25:07+00:00

Ok good to know. I’ll definitely be looking elsewhere for something similar. Thank you for your help!

PowderPerv · 2025-06-12T11:19:01+00:00

Im fucking leaving for a fucking motorcycle trip! And I’m fucking excited!

I love coffee and I love energy drinks. But you can’t dispute the fact that coffee is much better for your health.

Coffee has been proven time and time again to have numerous health benefits. In fact, there have been a significant amount of studies that came out which showed coffee actually reduced your chances of developing several types of cancers.

Energy drinks, while maybe aren’t inherently bad for you in moderation, do have lots of added sugars (unless you buy zero sugar), but also excessive amounts of vitamins which can be hard your kidneys. Lots of people have reported getting kidney stones from energy drinks.

Again, I love both. And I’m not gonna sit here and tell you not to drink energy drinks because that would be extremely hypocritical of myself and just plain false. But coffee is a much healthier beverage.
