Here's the result of my final project...although it's actually a combination of various practices I've been doing. I've loved experimenting with gouache; I think it's a very versatile medium that allows for vibrant colors. Little by little, I've been trying to create different scenes to create different challenges. Creating foliage and plants is definitely the most relaxing of all.
I'll continue practicing to improve my technique. Thank you so much for the course, I loved it. I'll share the step-by-step instructions for one of my paintings on the forum.
By the way, I took the references from the internet, except for the sixth image, which came from an idea I had in mind of a fantasy world filled with nature. Credits to the authors of the other images/photographs.

He aquí el resultado de mi proyecto final…aunque en realidad es un acumulado de diversas prácticas que he estado realizando. Me ha encantado experimentar con el gouache, creo que es un medio bastante versátil que da la oportunidad de mantener colores vibrantes. Poco a poco he ido tratando de hacer diferentes escenas para tener retos diferentes. Sin duda crear follaje y plantas es lo más relajante de todo.
Continuaré practicando para mejorar mi técnica. Muchísimas gracias por el curso, me ha encantado. En el foro compartiré el paso a paso de una de mis pinturas.
Por cierto, las referencias las he tomado de internet a excepción de la sexta imagen, que salió de una idea que tenía en la mente de un mundo fantástico lleno de naturaleza. Créditos a los autores de las demás imágenes/fotografías.

Hi Citlalitl Álvarez,
Really nice artwork! 🌟
I was curious—which notebook are you using? Is that hot-pressed or cold-pressed paper?
