I don't know if it's cheating to use an already completed painting but I did this in February as my own exercise after watching Will Terry's Draw 50 Things. I had fun researching colonial instruments and luthier tools but there were times I'd wished I'd done his suggestion of a candy shop instead!

[EunJi Jung]

[Suzanne Davis]

Hi, I'm new and would like to give this a try; mostly for the process. Is there a certain size/ dimension that I need to work in? Or is it best to stick with what Instagram requires for their photos? Thanks!

[catru]

I was trying to incorporate styles that influenced me and what I remember from my own childhood.

SORRY! This is finished version I forgot a layer before I uploaded. So as I said I wanted a cartoony, Ghibli and synthwavey look to this.

I deleted a previous image.. I rushed the submission. I puttered some more which resulted in a better [to my eye]image. Lesson learned. Put it away and look with fresh eyes in the morning before submitting it as 'finished'

Cropped the image and worked some more with the value. Much better and that's it.. Finished, not perfect.

@djlambson looks magical
