Nice! Do you have the reference photo you can upload here too? It'd be useful to see the reference to better help understand how you translated the lighting to your painting.

I’d say you’re on the right path. It’s a strong start. You’re light is coming from straight out onto this creature but why not angle it? It’ll give you more dimension in that the front or back of the creature will have more light. Remember that things in the shadow tend to have less detail and things in the light tend to have the most. However shadow is the best place to play with color and reflective ambient light ! :) Cant wait to see it done ✅

thank you Marco Bucci for heling me expand how i render and use colors. I did some experimental ( for me) coloring in this and am very happy with the improvement it made. Open to criticism and tips :)

Apologies if this made you spit out whatever you were eating at the moment. I am wondering what I could do to fix the lighting?
Anya Robbins
So it looks like your light is coming from above, or maybe slightly from the front-above. the first thing i'd do is go in an define my cast shadows. should be one on the .... tentacle tongue? and teeth... bellow the lips in general. there should be one on the lower part of the top lip too. try adding a sharper highlight on sections of the uper lip to define it more. Also the tentacles look like they have purple light at the bottom. why not use that to put some purple reflected light bellow the bottom lip to define it once it is darker from cast shadows.
