[@mijiyoon5575]

This is way above my *beginner* level...I'm painting rabbits from my photographs but have trouble w/ frontal faces so do side angles. I have used oils long ago & sold a few painting then; now I like dry~fast paint like acrylics & watercolors & it is fun. Your *tips* are very helpful ... perhaps if I stay w/ it I may some day be able to do cat eyes & frontal faces. TY *Wildlife in Watercolors*

[@TheDevonArtist]

You can do it Miji, you know you can, especially with the painting experience you have, even though some of it was with oil paints. It's learning how to look and 'see' within a photo and transfer that to a sheet of paper. Keep going and keep those brushes wet, Paul 🎨
