Marta
Hello, my name is Marta, I'm new in this comunity. Here is my submission for the self-portrait challenge.  I decided to paint full lenght portrait in classicism inspiration. I made it in Corel Painter using brushes that imitates oil paint.  Doing self-portrait I couldn't miss my two beloved budgies :)

Incredible technical work!!🙌
Priscilla
Hi everyone! I'm Priscilla but you can call me Allicsirpart! Here is my self portrait submission for the proko/slew challenge! I used acrylic paint and paint markers on canvas, the canvas size is 20x30cm. I tried to incorporate my 2D-like artstyle with a little bit more realism. Hope you enjoy!
Joe Arsenault
Stunning!! Love the psychedelic allusions!!
@coreysullivan
Hi everyone. My name is Corey. I’m a life long artist but needed an excuse to paint again. This contest gave me a chance to try some new things like working with an actual color palette. The hand is a little wonky but atleast my mustache is on point. This is acrylic on canvas.

Any excuse to paint is a good excuse ;) great work!! Can’t wait to see more from y’a!!
Charlene
That's it I'm calling it done! Based off a Princess Mononoke cosplay I wore to work for a Halloween costume competition (I won the competition but only 5 people at work knew who Princess Mononoke was). Painted with oil paint. Constructive criticism on anything, including oil painting, composition, light and shadow, clothing folds, face planes and anatomy, appreciated! I feel like I have a flat face that doesn't quite lend itself to planes very well. Good luck everyone!

Hey! Absolutely LOVE this piece!! Mononoke is such an icon right?? And only thing I can think of if @paper hasn’t already mentioned would be stronger light contrast, and perhaps lose the details in everything but the face using some kind of blending tool? Kinda a focus blur on everything but the main focal points (could contrast with perhaps keeping the necklace stronger in details too? But yeah, stronger contrast in face and necklace compared to everything else and it’ll pop nicely! The brights on the shirt are a bit bright which adds a bit too much contrast and attention to it unless that’s what you had planned. But yeah it already pops very nicely!! Great work Charlene!!🤘🖤🤘
Tomek Kowalczuk
Here's my final submission. Tried to keep the technique as traditional as possible ;) Good luck everyone!
Joe Arsenault
Very well done! Nice light control and colours!!
@firetrick
This was an awesome challenge! The melting roses decorating the mirror represent my passionate but withering ambitions, while my skeleton reflection pressures me to realize these dreams before it's too late!
Joe Arsenault
very deep! 🤘💀🖤
