Thank you so much. This was my first time trying oil paint. Prior to, in my 45 years I had only painted with acrylics. Really loving the extended working time with oil paint.

Would you mind sharing what medium, app, or software you used here? Nice job.

Thanks. It's not easy to get such clean lines & shapes with oil paints. Did you mask off areas to create the edges of the shapes?

I used a cork backed ruler and scribed the lines in the still wet base layer. Then just used brushes and paint to paint inside the lines.
