I'm debating using subeta to help my creativity come out in my painting. Ping me if you post c:

If I do these, they can be a few sizes. My main is 12x12.

I can do quad close up faces, or just a quad derp. Also, I can try just about anything. Just curious about a price.

- it's so awesome to see traditional artists here! i know price help is just a general idea, not the finished work, but these are pretty hard to price as they are. i'd like to see what exactly you want to sell. it would be really nice to see the paintings in a clearer context. taking a photo outdoors in indirect sunlight (midmorning is best) will bring out the true colors of the painting. try to have them parallel as possible in the frame, or slightly rotate them in a program so your painting is truly square, and crop them. presenting goes a looong way. it's not only just how you present them, either, it completely changes the meaning of the painting for people. for instance, seeing the first photo you posted, i see containers, a lamp, a soda can, and a dimly lit table. although they're obviously not the focus of the photo, my mind immediately associates the painting with the domestic items. it looks like the painting could be a vibrant glowing tree of life, and i think with a few tweaks in photographing your work it will bring that out for all the internet to see! i think it would be an injustice to try to price your work right now. do you have photoshop or gimp or any photo editing software? i'm not an expert but if you have any questions i'd be happy to help.

i use the levels tool like a fool!

example of simple photo editing vs and this is aaaanciennnnt but it's an example of a pencil sketch with the levels turned up:
levels is really useful for sketch work because when you scan or photograph a black and white piece the dark paper can be turned into computer-white and the lines darkened.
