I’m excited to finally share my ‘Okinawa Days’ – Painting tutorial with you! This one’s packed with all the techniques I love – and a few new tricks I stole from my husband! 😄 I’ll show you how I pre-mix paint to keep everything clean and crisp, how I build up the face and dress step by step, and how I got that soft glowy look without making a mess. If you’ve ever struggled with muddy colors or overworked portraits, this might be a game-changer.
