      I think you learn more by not following the instructions exactly. You get closer to understanding the why, which helps you make choices later, and you get closer to finding your own style. I think your painting is as beautiful as his, even if it is different.

        Thank you Sandra! It’s true, I did learn a lot and techniques that I can use as a tool later is very helpful in my art journey. 🙂
