I love watching videos of "how to paint" everything A-Z. Picked up a few new tricks and techniques. However, talent eludes me even though, I continue trying. I have to just consider my art works a hobby and that's alright with me. lol Here is the before picture thatI tried to paint. It was overworked, stressed, dull and unaligned to say the least.
Before:
Here is the same painting after, I scanned it into the computer and digitally
cleaned it up a bit.
After:
Both paintings are cartoonish but they are still my style. I wish I could paint and make it look like a photograph, but that isn't going to happen. A hobby is worth the efforts made to learn how to do them and keep improving skills. That is on everything from painting, sewing, cooking, etc., One never stops learning and that is ok.
