To darken strategic areas or to get a little bit more layering. Another exciting thing coming. I've got a grand reveal of a product. Uh, I can't follow it too much. I'm working with the um, the inventor and the owner of this company. That is a really neat way

We have reference photos of the sky without detailed clouds. Now that the whole picture has been presented, you can also say what you think

Color in my hand. I might as well maximize my time and use it. But also it creates um, a harmony of the painting and cohesiveness wear. Your colors aren't just all in oneplace there a little bit throughout the pain, not everywhere, but you know what strategic places and so on. So that's what I'm doing that also
