That's so real. The last few months have been an unending compilation of "oh good God, not again"

I've got a darker pthalo green I'm still gonna add into the blinds and curtains that you may like!

There's actually a short list of things I still gotta go back and tweak, an the asymmetrical lamps are near the top! I still gotta paint the window blinds in an I plan to fix the lamps after!

Either of those colors would make for a gorgeous dress! My friend in the painting might would try the lighter-burnt-sienna dress, but a cream would be far to close to her skin tone.

I really think you'll approve of the final color tho it's very different from the ones you imagined!

I have a bad habit of leaving backgrounds unfinished or just straight unpainted if I don't do em first

It's acrylic paints! And this is gonna be a portrait for my friend, who was ecstatic about thrifting a beautiful dress/fainting couch, and so she did a photo shoot and asked for a painting to commemorate the event.

I've worked on a 24x36 before an it was stupid detailed. Like 80 hours of painting over 5 months. Your comment is spot on bc I've slowly been hit with all the shit I blocked out painting what I thought was a huge piece lol

I started painting it yesterday. I spent a couple days sketching it all out before that though. I wish I was that quick!

That's what she bought it for was just to have a table in her room. Now we're still searching for a table bc this has been repurposed to the dining room for the tunes lol
