I finally finished this piece! It was definitely a challenging one for my first oil-painting experience, especially the trees. 😅 Looking back, I probably should have started with something easier. I also don’t know why my colours didn’t turn out like Sam’s — I think I still struggle with colour mixing even though I followed the course carefully!

This is my first piece using the value-based approach, and I’ll share the full finished work once it’s complete. update: I finally finished this piece!
