Here is my sketch! I left the pencil darker because otherwise I struggle to see it enough to paint accurately

Here I thought it was ruined due to water marks but I kept on going through this ugly stage

I added another layer of yellow ochre and then added the brown while it was still wet to smooth out water marks

This project was really fun and challenging as I’m a beginner. Anything else I can do to improve my final piece? At first the purple shadows looked like they were ruining the piece and I had to do a lot of smoothing over with water to blend them better in order to look more the way I wanted. I ended up using brown on top to help it look more natural.

    ¡Gran trabajo! Él es muy apuesto. Entiendo que usar colores complementarios no parece natural: puedes mezclar marrón con morado para hacerlo menos vibrante si prefieres un color de sombra menos vivo. En cuanto a consejos, tengo dos sugerencias:

    1) una es agregar pelos más largos y esponjosos en las orejas. La mejor forma de hacerlo es utilizar un cepillo pequeño y elástico que llegue a una buena punta y utilizar una mezcla que no esté demasiado húmeda. Gire la punta de lado sobre la paleta para quitar el exceso de pintura (ayudará con una línea más fina).

    2) Yo agregaría una pupila tenue al ojo. Busca la forma de las pupilas de la jirafa (¡no son redondas como las humanas!)

    Hermoso trabajo. Espero que hayas disfrutado el curso y muchas gracias por compartir tu trabajo 🦒
