I’m brand new and you went to fast with color mixing and I just gave up trying to follow you. The painting turned out much looser than yours but it was a fun study.

Excited to start as a new patron with this fall painting! #SpookySeason UPDATE: Had a great time with it. As a newbie who uses a palette knife to mix color, this took me a lot longer than the tutorial. haha. But, I'm very happy with the results and the lessons learned here.

Light family and shadow family. That's a really helpful way to describe it. Makes much sense.

This was one of my first tries, and I felt pretty good about it after I finished!
