Very nice! You captured the glow-y lighting on the subject and the room that we all love so much in Rembrandt’s work.

Unfortunately, there is still work to be done with it, and the brushwork is nowhere near as detailed and subtle as Ramrant’s, but thank you!

Really refreshing to see such subject.

So can we happily expect an update or is it finished as the category suggests?

I was impressed by this picture, and I wanted to see more, but you have made your portfolio private. If it’s not too presumptuous, may I ask why?

Thank you, but I have a weakness, namely that I don’t have enough patience. But I still have to work on it, I know… Maybe I’ll pick it up after a while and finish it.I’m a little afraid of messing it up even more…

Wow, I don’t know what I did. I just registered yesterday. Maybe you don’t see more pictures from me because I haven’t shared anything else yet.

Well, if you haven’t posted anything, I wouldn’t see it… but you have posted once, and when I try to see your profile, I’m told it’s hidden. Look in your Preferences under Interface – there’s a checkbox there that hides/reveals your profile. And nice work on the Rembrandt.

Thanks, I managed to make my profile public! :slight_smile:

Whatever you do next will certainly be cool. Be it continue or make another one!

Thank you for the preliminary trust, but I feel it is excessive :slight_smile:
