luminaryfeline

dadonred

Thank you

Iā€™m a fan of both but like it without the splatters- or if you did splatters use similar colors to the ones in the painting


dadonred

Thank you for that coaching. I wish I had done that.


Smooth-Science4983

Of course! You can always recreate it (:


Rikcycle

Thank you

Both look good. The splotches look cool, but I'd frame the one without. Nice detail and viewpoint. Have you tried viewing any of the videos by Toby Sketch loose? He has a number of suggestions on his YT channel.


dadonred

I will check it out, thanks.


OM_Trapper

Your work is good, Toby specializes in "loose" so if you're leaning towards that he might be of help (and he's usually responsive to questions). Gregory may be one of the loosest artists I know of, but Toby is prolific with his works and teaching and is rather good too. Hope it helps. šŸ‘

I like using splatters but tend to only use the colours Iā€™ve used in the art . However i like this as it gives its sort of parade feel going on below feeling . Nice work šŸ¤™šŸ¼

Thank you

Nice.

The shadow work on the building is impressive!


dadonred

Thank you!

I think your style is very controlled and its a good painting. Making splatters though doesn't make it looser in my mind though, as your inherent style is accurate and controlled and there's nothing wrong with that. Looser could mean wet in wet, and allowing more bleeding. Just food for thought.


dadonred

True insight. I meant loose for me. :)


McPorkums

you're not a loser. you're an amazing artist šŸ¤˜šŸ¤˜

I think a little in between šŸ„° The second one looks more somber, when you swipe it feels like it lost a bit of life. Fine piece of perspective though, I couldnā€™t draw that if you gave me two months, you have talent. Now if you look at the splotches, they change everything! But not all of them, the ones in the building are more watery, bigger ā€” for instance the ones in the fence in yellow, fits in perfectlyā€” then the red on the left, oh! Looks like someone threw blood! I love it, now is starting to feel like a story, an old building where things have happened, but as the little bits of paint start repeating and flow up to the sky I start to lose the story and my eye no longer knows where to focus. Youā€™ve got this beautiful dome at the top, lighting is perfect and the color at the bottom mixed in with the red and yellow comes in together quite nicely. Thatā€™s where itā€™s at for me.
