Underpainting stage
I worked on it just at my Saturday class. So 3 hours a week, probably 6 weeks total
The pic I was using
Mostly underpainting

I had trouble with the eyes early on

I’m AuDhd myself - ADHD is comorbid with autism in a large percent of people. If you don’t think it’s a disability, you may still be in some denial about its effects on your life.
Oil painting. I added the other pics I meant to post original. I was out waiting for an event to start, and thought I had time to post them all before it started but didn’t
Yeah, I take classes at a local art studio. They make most of their money from kids classes. But the guy who owns the studio is an amazing painter, in the style of the masters.

Early stage where the orange underpainting still shows.
This is oil painting. I started it about a year ago. This was I think my third completed painting.

When you work with an ai assistant, you’re a centaur. What the bosses want is a reverse centaur. That’s where you run N assistants all day long somehow just jumping in when there’s an issue or problem. That’s why they’re saying the savings should be at least 1. It’s just nonsense though. I rarely have 6 simultaneous problems to fix.

The practice head, in the lying down position. That one was a brain teaser. I had to just look at it like mountains.
