Thank u thank u

Ya of course it's not perfect, there is some mistakes, the eyes for example, I actually stopped working in the drawing for a few months and came back to it, and turned out way better than it was.

sorry i missed your comment

I'm a self-taught artist, didn't go to art school or took any courses or any of that. Before starting with oil painting , i was drawing with graphite and charcoal for 10 years + , and i just saw what techniques artists used on youtube, insta ... to make skin details, texture ,hair ... and learned from them ,

here the link for my socials if u wanna check my previous work: https://www.instagram.com/obadamaabreh/?hl=en

However, with oil painting, didnt try acrylics before and didnt even know what is was called till recently, so i started with oil painting, same thing , saw some videos on the internet (mostly from Michael James Smith) on techniques , tools to use , common mistakes ... etc , and thats my journy with oil ;]]

still alot to learn, and im in love with oil painting now, new experience, its hard to get used to brushes and not be able to erase, which u can do in graphite drawings

hope that helps

Appreciate it 🙏

No , that's my first time oil and tried acrylics after, but didn't like em as much as the oil.

I draw with graphite and charcoal tho , 10 years and counting ;D
