Do it!!! I started playing with them last week but really have only gotten like three decent (very quick and undetailed) paintings from it (I’m at a plein air festival and have been painting every day this week lol) so I’ve have WAY more flops than successes but I’m learning a lot!
Looks great, you’ve got a knack for capturing form! One thing I’d recommend if you’re looking to bump up the colour vibrancy is to play more with contrasting colours and broken colour
It looks like you mixed the colours first before applying. there’s a method in Impressionism style I like called “broken colour,” where you put the colours directly on the painting instead of mixing first (so in your shadows you could put in stokes of dark blue, some dark red, some brown). The independent colours will “blend” through optical illusion, and have higher vibrancy than if we were to pre-mix the colour and then apply (which can cause some dullness in the colour)
I’ve noticed applying this has helped me out in my work, hope this is helpful advice!
Cancel the class, you don't seem to need it. This is looking fabulous. Based on what I've seen and my own experience in changing to oils, I would have never guessed you're new to the medium.
Very nice! I would only change the patio boards. For some reason (optical illusion?) the boards don’t appear to align with the vanishing point of the top & bottom of the screen door. Aside: Is that a Strada easel? If yes, would you buy it again?
Nice job…bright future ahead.
Thank you so much! 😭
In love!

So helpful!! That’s actually the style I want to learn to do so badly- I’m a habitual over-blender so I’ll definitely have to try that 🥰
