It was of a girl on a surf bored with wings flying away from this cage where she was trapped ( the tree is huge and the land is floating ) and i painted her skin and i dont know how to make skin tone and it turned out a little orange and they laughed and made fun of it for about 30 min i dont know i feel a little depressed about it. i felt bad when my mom laughed at it but when my aunt did it pissed me off D:< i hate her so ******** much

That's shitty, I'm sorry to hear that. They should be a bit more supportive of your art. But don't let their negative criticism get you down dear. Practice makes perfect. What kind of paints are you using, maybe I can help?
this works for many types of paint; to get skin collor you should start with an light orange tone much yellow, little red. then add a iniminitipsy blue, add some white for the taste smile

That was really mean! D:<
I hope you didn't let it discourage you from painting, though. o:
@rabbits i use water color paint i want to use oil paint next the first i ever used was acrylic
@teunnie thanks i will try that next time biggrin
@kaenai thanks yea it did but i got over it i spent 3 days on it and im like 40% done D; my longest painting EVER
I'm not fond of oil, never used water color. I prefer acrylics. ^-^ I'll have to post a few of my paintings on here sometime. I used to paint all the time.
