Is this a good painting for a beginner?

Question

Lately I’ve been trying to do more activities off my phone that help me ease my mind. This is my favorite painting I’ve done so far. What do you think? Any critique?

Answer

Good for you for getting off your phone! And nice job. One suggestion: bring the paint just beyond the pencil sketching, it will "complete" each flower.

Answer

Yeah ❤️ I wondering the same

Answer

My first painting. 100% Inspired by my boyfriend for our 2 year anniversary ❤ I know it isn't the best.. but I really enjoyed painting. I'd like to paint again but I'm so scared that I just got a bit lucky on my first try and that I'm gonna discover I'm actually really bad at it.

Answer

I love it I think the fact that you didn’t finish coloring in the flowers makes it unique & cool looking it’s a great job! Keep going!

Answer

Yes that’s really good, next step would be to start thinking about different values of lights and darks. It will help make your work look more lifelike!

Answer

That's great! Flowers are very technically challenging! As for improvements on the painting it's very flat, as in there's no illusion of depth or variation in the color used on them, if you're going for a photo realistic look this counts against achieving that. Don't worry! I highly suggest looking at plants in real life if possible or really looking at photos. Also don't be afraid to kinda go crazy with color that can create really cool effects as well.  
As for rendering objects, maybe try to start with simpler more solid objects, like coffee mugs and paint or draw those. Try to capture the light and shadow on the objects as best as you can and work your way up from there! Happy painting!

Answer

lol good for you. I draw on my phone so it’s kind of contradictory in my case. But I think it looks wonderful!! Keep at it and you will be a magnificent artist.

Answer

I love this! I would add some shadows on the petals or some detail lines to show the movement of the petals, but this is beautiful.

Answer

It's awesome!
