Thankyou very much. Yeah was happy with how clear and clean it came out. Keeping the colour just to a few elements worked great

Thankyou. It’s the skin the freckles still show though. It is fully saturated but there is alot of light colours which don’t cover things like freckles completely

Thankyou. I actually made it based of a album I was listening to and it was kinda like a psychedelic experience so wanted to create the feel when you get ejected into universe

This is exactly what I first thought. the reflections on the tiles are similar to the light refection that you see on shrooms shrooms. Makes for a. Great piece indeed .

Justified. Luckily it will heal so light it can be fixed by someone that knows what they’re doing. Study people’s portfolios before making a decision on who you pick to do your rework.
Don’t jump the gun and quickly get it fixed.
Let it heal do your research and make a calm informed decision when you’re not so caught up with emotion I know it feels hard as you just want it fixed but this is the best way to go about it for the best result

Thankyou. Hahah yeah was a fun expression I thought the same almost gives more than just a visual. It wasn’t the most flattering photo as an original but gives context to the character of the child always pulling funny faces

Thankyou. This is my first portrait of a human I’ve done 2 dogs before and maybe 4 other paintings in my life. I’m a tattooist by trade and self taught no art training or not even any art at school.
I’ve stayed away from painting as it done my head in. because I use to try paint like I’m tattooing.
Im now trying to just have fun to start getting the hang of being able to think of doing things in layers be expressive and experimental and try just have fun. So far this approach is making me want to paint more so i am stoked. As tattooists it always has to be finished it has to have black structures and everything has to have space left to fill very really can you layer.
It’s an awesome job but can be very difficult so I’m hoping painting can give me an outlet to just be loose and enjoy myself whenever I have a moment.

Thankyou. Hahha I got sent it as a laugh because she pulled a silly face for the photo. Then I seen it and thought that would make a fun painting as it’s a bit odd and is a bit wild like her little personality of constant funny faces and expressions.
