Oil on paper.
Trying a lose style, don't look too close :-)
You can check out the intermediate steps on my revived (but resetted 😭) lemmy server here lemmy.mindoki.com/c/aip
This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨
Rules
AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).
Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.
Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.
Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.
I don't know if I would tone down the red but I don't really paint too much anymore so I can't give you a solid answer. This might sound cheesy but you could look at how others use alcoves in their art (that's from the movie Old) but also maybe how other painters utilize light/dark to transform their ocean scenes. But I don't have actual answers someone else might?
Or you could find them along the way =)! Gl!
Wow that second painting really is something 💖.
Inspiring!
And maybe I can figure out how to move forward better, thanks!
Super cool =)! You're already doing so good. You got this =)!
