dust

starting on landscape - a new subject!
this one's not done yet

rainforest

steel roof + brick walls

picture origin: a street corner in iran
before and after homa's touch-ups. you can really see the painting gets pulled together!

a mexican house

took me 5 nights...
and you can find the original picture here, too. the plants in the front went on last. but at first they were lack of dark accents, which made them too receding and perspectively incorrect. so i added more details and dark accents.

comments from homa:
- she likes it very much and thinks it's CUTE
- should have had spacing in yellow flowers to show the house
- too much details on the left-side house. it's creating a 2nd focal point (bad bad bad)
- the center of interest is the house - the middle layer of the painting (kinda rare). so the plants in the front should be soft as they are.
- the colors are really bright, which makes it really mexican. (guess i was too happy while painting )
