Thank you Mayumi! It's one of those things were you either texture everything, or you keep things more subtle. Like the fabric. I could have spent another 10 hours just putting the weave into the cloth

Ha....I just noticed my spelling error.Β One, not once, sorry.
Totally my pleasure!Β I'm horrible with brushes.Β Can't paint worth a lick, but, give me a pencil of some kind, chalk pastels, or if pushed a pc mouse to draw with and I'm a happy camper.Β

haha, I'll forgive you! Some comments over the years have been unreadable (most of them my own!
I know what you mean about brushes. It takes a lot of getting used to. Especially coming from a watercolor background... my initial oil paintings were far from decent. I spent so many hours just re-working areas because I didn't have enough paint.
As long as you enjoy creating - it doesn't matter the medium!

Thank you Kim! The program I am in forces you to look and paint at all those details than I typically am used to. It's great practice and I love it!

Wow, this is pretty amazing. In the future when we don't live anymore, I bet this painting will be worth millions of dollars

Thanks Dan, I hope to take what I've learned in oils and apply them at least partially to illustration work

I actually love oils, too. Β It was my starting medium, until someone gave me acrylics. Β It's been a temptation to go purchase a mini set of oils, just to have fun again. Β Your work brings back the nostalgia, and the love of the medium when I worked with it. Β
Definitely looking forward to more.

I find oils in a weird way to be easier than watercolors. I'm so used to how watercolors worked but now I don't think I want to look back!

Oils tend to be more forgiving, that's for sure.
They also open themselves up for 'ad libbing', and changing in mid-stream.
