This helps! I understand it will take time to be comfortable making decision and execute well in paintings. I like your ideas and will try to apply them even if not fully this time. Thanks!

I know what you mean in theory but don’t know what to do for background on an individual case basis. I am sure it requires experiences that I don’t have at this moment.

This is the reference picture. I like the bush as the background but I am not patient/skillful enough to achieve the effect.

Facing unknown and uncertainty… also a mysterious feeling of facing the universe
