thank you!

So it's not hot anymore

ha nice! Familiarity brings out warmth, I think.

I strayed away from the reference image a little bit, I wanted a bit of typical Eastern look.

I saw your posts, especially Sam L.J portraits, made me envious actually, cool work.

yeah, in a sea of AI garbage, I like to see people do something just for the pleasure of doing it. that's why I participate.

that's a high praise, lol. I'm getting there though

thank you!

where? in the snowy part? it wasn't deliberate, lol.

yes, absolutely. I need to build patience for landscapes where a lot is going on. Each part is effecting other but still an individual thing so their relationship gets tricky for me. Happy to hear your feedback. I appreciate it!

thank you!

haha, no. It's just lack of commitment, I wasn't sure where I wanted to keep the focus so everything came haphazardly. When I see finished art pieces on the web, artists usually mention the time they spent on it. It's like 10, 12 hours sometimes. I sort of give up after 2 hours. Very rarely I paint for 3 to 4 hours and difference is noticeable in those pieces.
