I highly respect the result of this voting Monthly Art Challenge WIPs and Discussion Thread – February 2024 - #49 by Iruhas , therefore, I have decided not to include these 2 pictures for this month’s entry. I did not delete this so that the conversation in the WIP topic discussing this post does not lose its context. Thank you for all of your feedback, and I apologize for the confusion caused by me.
The intended pictures
My first entry: Random rural scenery
Timelapse
Photo reference and what I thought
You can find reference photos at https://www.mapcrunch.com/
I tried to maximize the use of brushes that have shape engine such as the one in Iruhas 6 main brushes. Since I like sharp edges, I left it that way. And for variation I just played with the opacity.
My second entry: Harvesting Bamboo
Timelapse
What is it?

The reference for my 2nd picture is from a photo of my front yard that I took using my smartphone. Actually it’s my neighbor’s land and there are many kinds of tropical trees, such as Rambutan trees, Salak trees, Banana trees, Coconut trees, and Bamboo trees (they grow wildly), and many more. That is the condition after the process of cutting down the bamboo trees that will later be used as material to make a house, you can see the condition is very full of leaves, some of which get into the house because of the wind (and it is very itchy). But the condition did not last long, because the next day everything was taken care of until it was neat and clean as before.
If anyone asks where the building is, look at the white part on the left side of the picture, it is the roof of my neighbor’s house which is located under a low cliff.
