Total amateur, just enjoying my mechanical pencil and trying to learn some gouache at the moment.

Love the pteruges flower skirt :) and that direct sunlight.

Looking great Carlos!:) Maybe the far side of the skull seems a little warped or the shadow on the lemons is a little too bright, but just guessing really, haven't seen your reference. You're doing great though tbh!:)
Carlos Diaz
Thanks Jan!! Your feedback is on point too! I did notice the lemons issues after finishing it but didn't try to fix it since it is a good reminder and also (hopefully) will serve as a reference of the progression I can make. :)

Gouache first steps
Hi all!! First point to remark, I'm into drawing, I've drawn quiet a lot (with very little success still, hahahaha) but I've never painted before. So, I started to become attracted more and more to paiting and decided to try out some gouache paints (really liked the almost oil paint looks you can get with them). These are the first few complete pieces I've done. All critique is welcome.

Great work man!! Keep it up! :)

Thanks a lot! Gotta get those brushes going hahahaha

Those are awesome!! You can see the gesture perfectly in each single one and the lines are nice and loose (which in my opinion is how you capture the gesture so well). Really jealous, these kind of poses are the ones I struggle with more.

Wow thanks so much Carlos!🙌 I try and have fun keeping it energetic and loose.I love the complicated poses, I know for me sometimes drawing the same pose a few times helps to make sense of it.
