Wow this is an incredible painting! I really like the detail, seeing the face in the reflection of the bottle is awesome!
I prefer the old style mediums as well, canvas and the like. Digital painting is good and all but being an artist with a mouse is different than with a brush. You can undo or remove something on a computer but on canvas it’s harder to fix a mistake I think. I’m not an artist or anything but thinking about what I like about it, I prefer traditional art to modern.
Here’s some art we bought when we were in Italy a few years ago!
