          @AngelinaKizz, @Angela-Sagues and @Elinore-Eaton i am thinking now I need to totally redo it before I enter it. Fix the shadows and such and add a lamp.

              @reelynn you don’t necessarily have to redo the piece. There’s plenty of room to keep adding and tweaking your current piece. What medium did you Use? Do you have an option to work digitally?

                @angelinakizz I did the original drawing digitally, but printed it and painted it with gouache and colored pencils. I can try to do it digitally as I have the drawing and color ideas digital already. I am just not comfortable with that medium yet. But no time like the present, right? 😋

                  @reelynn use the photo you uploaded here, in your digital program, and add a new layer over top of it. Work in the new layer, just like you’re using paint to “correct”. You can use the color picker, or eye dropper, to grab the color you were originally working with, to paint over the shadows you want to move. In a new layer, you can add new shadows. If you throw an entire layer of dark blue over the entire painting, and then reduce the opacity (usually in your layer options) then it’ll cast a lights out effect over the whole painting. You can then go in and erase where light would hit, say from a night light, or a lamp. And, if it doesn’t work out, then just remove the layers you added over the original and you’re back to square one.

                            @reelynn awesome. I have such a hard time with digital l I enjoy the colors and subject matter. It looks like its straight out of a children’s book
