Learning to Paint Pt. 3

I started learning to paint digitally in March 2021, using "The Ultimate Digital Painting Course" on Udemy. This third batch of work covers a single module "Learning the Photorealistic Painting Style", which I chipped away at over at least a month. Painting from imagination, and with a high level of detail, was a real challenge - the subject is too distinct from the background, which potentially results from a lack of bounce lighting. One to revisit in the future.
