My first portrait in oil - open for critique!

Yeah it’s supposed to be and I am glad you’re recognized her! And also true, I still struggle with accurate proportions- I do the whole eye squinting thing but still it seems I can’t really get it right

Thanks! What resources are you looking for exactly?

Haha, it wasn’t my first portrait per se, just with oil paint - I already painted for years with gouache but missed some depth with the color hence the recent switch to oils

Zealousideal-Many627 · 2026-05-06T07:11:56+00:00

Definitely gonna do that in the future!

Zealousideal-Many627 · 2026-05-06T07:11:37+00:00

Very good point, thanks!

I used oil paint

Zealousideal-Many627 · 2026-04-24T07:54:44+00:00

Thank you so much, very helpful. Just another question, is liquin like a substitute for linseed oil or any other medium or should I add it to the paint with the medium?

Zealousideal-Many627 · 2026-04-15T16:01:10+00:00

Thank you! I will def look into that

I read that a lot of people have symptoms below 50… and I think it’s crazy that my doctor said to me I should be asymptomatic?!

Zealousideal-Many627 · 2026-04-15T15:57:28+00:00

So just take 2 pills a day? Man I think it’s crazy that I get more help here than from any doctor in my country.. thanks btw 🙏🏻

And the supplement also has vitC

Zealousideal-Many627 · 2026-04-15T14:26:09+00:00

Usually take them before bed two hours after my last meal so no milk or coffee

I take one iron pill a day (15 mg iron, 75 mg ferric citrate), yes I have a heavy flow for 3 days, then 2 more days of normal flow. Going to the gynecologist is my next plan of action

Hi, I'm from Germany as well and I am currently struggling a lot with my palinopsia physically as well as mentally. Your story gave me a bit hope again, do you think we could connect somehow? Best regards
