/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

i'm the dude who previously made this >>7107778 . after the feedback i got i made a conscious effort to lay down more defined shapes for the lights and shadows, then tried to enhance its painterly look by *purposefully* making it look muddier. rn i admire the works of Anastasia Grintsova and Tatyana Kupriyanova, which look traditional (and are partly so) but are mostly digital.

it's not an exceptional piece, but i felt like i learned something. thx for the feeback anons!
