what'chu lookin at?

So okay i was lookin at some digital paintings and wanted to do one of a photograph but not paint on top of the photo. I haven't really done that before so i wanted to see how bad i can do so i can improve on it. In my opinion its pretty bad lol I always veer off the original photo and no i'm not gonna show the photo cause its really bad lol. I took away the colors cause i just luv black and white. I'm not really gonna pretend that i will do it in the future because my feelings just overflow when it comes to black and white. There's just something about it that makes me so happy lol. I think this took me about an hour or two i'm not sure. It was really fun but i wanna do better now, so i'll get the work out of the way then back to some more digital painting. Take care of urselves! PEACE AND LUV!
