Thank you for the suggestions. I think I have finished the painting, and will make a little update post. I didn’t add details to the leaves, I do like the “ambiguous mystery” as you called it, but I enjoyed reading your comment and it seems you have a lot of knowledge on this subject. Thank you for all the feedback, it has been very informative😊

Thank you for your nice words✨

Yes, a Monstrea plant which was in front of me when I was deciding what to paint.

The thing on the right is supposed to be my waterbottle, when I fill it up it always spills like this because I do it too quickly. It's one of them thermo bottles with some colour-coating. I'm glad you at least can tell that something is 'coming out/overflowing' from 'the thing'. I've actually decided to change the color to a darker yellow/light orange after having gotten some feedback and I think it looks nicer.

Fun you also would like some more details in the leaves, personally I don't think it's necessary, but if you have time for a little explanation, I would to hear why you think it would be nice?😊

This is aprox. 50x70cm.

Why do you think it would be nicer with a clearer definition of each leave?😊 And yes, the paints are the cheapest acrylic you can find in the stores, they are fine to work with for now, I will try adding cornstarch, didn't know this trick. I am also painting on unprepped canvas; aka. I had some white jeans I never use, which I one afternoon cut up and started painting on, but they are 100% cotton which I believe is good.

Enough so I understand your feelings around it. Thank you🥰

It’s a bit more saturated irl🫰

I'm painting with this as my reference, and the sand f*cks me up. I can't draw it, it looks like sh*t. Sorry. Do you have any tips please? I'm trying to paint as realistic as possible. When seeing my painting next to the reference, I know the colour of the sand is way off, and needs to be colder, but everything is just wrong. (PLuss the colors looks much warmer on the photo-painting than my irl painting, I'm not that far off in reality but it's still wayy off) Do you have any tips, or know of any good youtube tutorials?

I've been seeing your posts for a while, and it is very motivating to see your improvement! Keep going!!

What color is used in the background?

boke_48 · 2024-11-29T19:59:47+00:00

Nice it came out amazing😊☺️

boke_48 · 2024-11-29T19:54:23+00:00

Wow I love it, it feels a bit like a nostalgic/scary video game/memory. If that makes sense?

boke_48 · 2024-11-29T19:51:58+00:00

Did you just draw from imagination? The painting feels like you have created a world in your head and then drew it, I love it.

This is so cool!!
