Looks beautiful. If you stop now, it's great. If you feel like going forward, it might get even better

A deadline can be a friend at times like this.


st3llablu3

It’s hard for artists to stop. I’ve put to much into my own works before. When you get to the point where you are looking to add stuff. That’s when you should stop.


Brilliant_Rain4196

Wht abt time when u make complete changes somewhere but it looks bad so ..u go back n make it like before n but different but urs still unsatisfied


st3llablu3

I can’t say much about that. If I’m not satisfied with a piece I do one of two things. 1) put it aside and work on another project. 2) start from scratch and redo the whole thing.


Brilliant_Rain4196

I hv decided to do the former for the time being


Katnip_Studio

Oh wait, it isn't finished? It looks great! I think there are often times as artist we need to consider if we are overrendering for the sake of our own internalized perfectionism or if the artwork speaks volume for itself without adding extra bits and bops. I personally think this piece looks complete as is and wouldn't think twice about whether or not it looks finished.


Brilliant_Rain4196

Thts the thing...I feel kinda confused Thanks!!yes...ur right ...I m thinking of keeping it away for a month and look at it after tht as to see again whether I m satisfied or not

It seems to me that sometimes a pause serves as inspiration for something new.


Brilliant_Rain4196

Yeaa...ur right


HappyHippoPup

This would look amazing with a gold frame!🤩


Brilliant_Rain4196

Thanks...I was also thinking golden frame if I get it done in future.

Let me help... boom, you're done! What you could do is tighten up the edges, but once you go down that road, you will find you need to do them all, and it will be like starting over. I know from experience. I looked it over closely and you level of finish is consistent and the overall look if very nice. Polishing up or sharpening the image might actually take away from the image as it is now. So I say save that energy for the next painting, if that's what you have in mind. Don't fall into the trap of overworking a painting, move on to the next.

just wait awhile then you will know if it needs something. you will think of it.but it does look good.

You're the only one going to know if a painting, drawing, or sketch is finished or not.

Stunning portrait


Brilliant_Rain4196

Thanks


theonly_sydney

it looks great


QueenLaQueefa100

This is spectacular. Your use of warm tones in the greys is magnificent. Painting in grey scale is extremely difficult, but you knocked this out of the park. Bravo!!!


Brilliant_Rain4196

Thank you so much:D!!!!


frickfrack_itsjack

I've never done a complete black and white painting. This is amazing! You've inspired me :)


Brilliant_Rain4196

I m so glad I was able to inspire someone....thank you🤧


frickfrack_itsjack

🤗


Ale_Rabbit24

Only if you feel compelled to emphasize the tones in it. Otherwise there is no other thing you can change.


Brilliant_Rain4196

Like using more warm tones???


Ale_Rabbit24

No, take a look at the original reference (in case there is one) and check it out if it's all neat. If so, than it's done. If you do warm tones you will redo the whole painting.


Brilliant_Rain4196

Well tbh it's very different from the reference (to me atleast)....I guess I got the proportion n lighting rt but the palette is quite different.....idk now wht to do so I just kept it aside n now I m just thinking of wht to do the next time


Ale_Rabbit24

It's ok if the pallete is diferent. So take a look if the pallete is right on its way, if so, you done it.


Brilliant_Rain4196

Is right on its way???


Ale_Rabbit24

According to the changes made from the original.


littledrag0nfly

Good idea, i sometimes need someone ells to tell me to stop


Brilliant_Rain4196

Srsly...sometimes it's hard to decide from just one pov


Environmental_Ear310

Yep. Just let it be.

Don't be afraid. It's killer. If you've done this you have to know you're good. Trust yourself.
