attempt #2, less ambitious but more successful, turns out painting is easier if i don’t start with lines
it’s a redraw of my first portrait painting all the way back in 2016, included below ^^
there was An Attempt but i still don’t know how to paint faces 🙃
also colors look so different on different screens, i think i keep starting out too dark
spent way too long polishing the previous wip that didnt work out so finished some sketches that i like more instead
