Nice painting. Nice instruction, and very nice fingernails! A comment on the flower pots... I'm not complaining about the instruction, everything you say about painting and technique is helpful and valuable, but about the flower pots themselves ultimately -- it's not that one is good and the other bad... there's a real proper use for both -- Absolutely as stand alone subjects the one on the right is better/more developed. But in a larger painting that pot on the left might be perfectly rendered for it's subordinate place in a compostion, not drawing too much attention to itself, whereas the very busy energy that the pot on the right has would be distracting 'overdeveloped' and out of place. Sometimes you want a building rendered down to the last nail... sometimes just the silhouette is right... and of course everything in between.

Black-and-white is good, but an actual value study is even better. There are apps for value studies, e.g., "See Value." It offers the option for a 3- or 4-value study.

the biggest mistake is ... not moving quickly. I do the one on the right but always, always regret not moving quickly because when the paper is dry already, the hard outlines are made.

Yes so tricky! I think that gradually becomes more natural over time, but having rough cotton paper really helps a lot too

I stopped using Arches because of the bad smell when wet. There is a coat of gelatin on it which retards drying which you may or may not like. It’s also way too expensive.

How can it be a mistake? It is interpretation.
@kristinvanleuven
@kristinvanleuven 19 сағат бұрын
Mistakes and interpretations are different. If I’m trying to paint the one on the right then the one on the left has a few mistakes that can be fixed with color value. If I know the “rules” but I want to break them and paint one like the left painting then that’s great! I see no problem with the left except that most people are trying to achieve something else because the left does not have any light
