It did rain a bit yesterday
If you are trying to implement something new … you have got to practice. There is simply no other way around it. So decided to try the coloring again and it turned out a big mess. Though my art director kept a close eye on me and my work …
I didn’t like the sketch or the composition (but decided to move on anyway), I couldn’t find the color palette that would feel right, I got all my layers mixed up, etc. Some of you will understand this: I just wanted to be done with it.
I would totally support an indefinite number of undoes. But since you learn more from mistakes anyway, here it is.

Marvelous artwork... Perfect sketching...
Well done @atopy
You really managed to create your recognisable style.
I'm not an artist and I don't know how exactly to define it, but it has "something".
superb art
I had to smile at the photo with Painter open, it's like my mornings espeically with the gaze of a ginger cat eyeing you up. So my mornings.
This is really beautiful you have nailed the ethereal glow with these works. Keep it going! I like the colour too.
Did you use an airbursh tool? I've played with that a couple times for fun, but then never think to use it when working on a piece. I keep going back to my boring brushes, but it's hard to change an old habit from IRL.
Yeah...i tap in different styles all the time. While in a way I would like having one recognisable style on the other hand don't really want it...I think with time u get bored watching the same technique. You do 100 paintings but all look like one big canvas that could be merged in one single picture.
Idk what this image has...maybe a specific mood? ..anyway ty. :)
Art is the food of soul, Beautiful work and nice sketching.
...i always use airbrush lol....its my boring brush :D and ditto...im trying to change it around so practicing on backgrounds with your set of "boring brushes". Maybe I manage to make a bit of walkthrough with the next one.
Ty.

Well if this is a mistake it's an absolutely gorgeous one. Keep making more mistakes!
Life is a series of mistakes and calamities. I think that recognizing this is part of becoming an artist.
Amazing what you manage to create, especially under such intense scrutiny ;)
I cannot decide whether I like more your cat or your beautiful butterfly! :)
art director :) He must be one of few that you actually like, huh :)
<3 yeah...i dont like ppl watching me draw...or giving too much guidance lol. The issue with the image is it simply didnt happen as i invisoned it....and i like to whine. :D
I am getting lazy with my painting, and all I have to do is PRACTICE. Well said and cute butterfly. You gotta start somewhere!
