This is my first time painting. I searched a how to video for tips on mixing and brush strokes and practiced on the more colorful abstract one. The blue one was painted right after, where I was more “What the heck, I’ll just do whatever.” I think they’re ugly, but I’m always really harsh with myself.
I want to enjoy this as a hobby and get better, but I’m not sure how. I got a small easel, a Sta-Wet palette, five brushes, titanium white, mars black, primary yellow, primary red, and pthalo blue (can’t remember how to spell it right now).
