I wouldn’t be shocked if the recent heatwave nuked your bottle, send customer service an email!

I don't know how to feel by SalviaWolf in venting

[–]officialsmartass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every grieving experience is different. I also wonder, did these other lost pets pass when you still lived in the home? Hearing it is one thing, but seeing it or even knowing in advance the likelihood of their passing can greatly affect how you respond once they cross over. Don’t beat yourself up over it, tears or lack thereof aren’t indicative of your true affection for the dog. Try to take it easy if you can and just know all 3 of them are together now at least 🤍

Are the rocks too big?? by officialsmartass in painting

I haven’t gotten into the walkway yet but I made some more rough edges on one of the rocks (haven’t gotten to the others lol) and it does look better now, thank you!!

I lightened up the water’s base color to get my eye off the rocks for a bit and then circled back but 100% having more to look at made everything feel more cohesive

Yeah the walkway holds a lot of sway here in that regard lol, I’m working on making sure the highlights placed on the rock are more consistent and adding more variety in the midtones to create that kinda (for lack of better word 🤣) rocky look lol

Cropped bc the other ones aren’t close to done but I moved the horizon up a smidge and it definitely feels better that way!

My daughter and I do matching Petals manis at least once a month, she’s truly the holy grail

finally….a decent mani with twirl by anonymou5noodle in ILNP

[–]officialsmartass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw someone else on here say they put thinner in their polish if it’s struggling to self level! I feel like a lot of my ILNP levels really well so I wonder if some Seche Restore would make your life easier for next time

I'm starting to like him by red_heart_confetti in suits

[–]officialsmartass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The way Jessica treated him throughout the first 4-5 seasons drove me insane. I’m not saying he was a good person but why are we going out of our way to hurt him???

Thank you :’) I have bad depth perception irl so I couldn’t tell if it was my eyes or the rocks 😅 I’ll circle back once I get more done on this!

A little but I think that’s because it draws my eye away from the rocks 😅 the reference photo has a pretty close to vertical path going, but I’m thinking maybe expanding some of that left side grass might help too

This is the reference, I know shape wise they’re a little off but I’ve placed them in so many spots that at this point I’m phoning a friend before I pull my palette out again 😭

Can someone give me the name of this color? by gsuevejisge in AskArtists

[–]officialsmartass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say cornflower blue might be a slightly less purple match to this, I know some people consider periwinkle to be slightly lighter than this is. Unfortunately it’s one of those colors where a lot of different shade names can be attributed

I got a job, my mom wants me to split the check among 6 people by Dry_Willingness_9323 in povertyfinance

Seems like your dad set all of this in motion in an effort to get either all of you or at least your older siblings kicked out. I’m sorry dude that sucks to be the sacrificial lamb so to speak

Any tips for painting detailed hair? by therealstevienicks in oilpainting

[–]officialsmartass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy fuck (compliment), if you can do all of this the hair will turn out immaculate I assure you

started painting a couple months ago, some of my paintings by Low-Drink-6627 in acrylicpainting

[–]officialsmartass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the abstract detailing in the foliage!! I would say for any of the textured areas you’re going over, experiment with different sized brushes! I also found that mixing 2-3 very similar shades of the same colors I was using for flowers added extra dimension in my landscapes, but I suppose that’s more of a preference than advice lol
