Basic Draw

Some friends have asked me to see some process while painting, well here I show you my approach for it, it doesnt mean I do every paint with this way, I try to variate to find more possible solutions, but anyway, here the painting was taken from a photo again but I took more time with this one (6 hours)

Just 1 Layer (There is no neccesity of use more really)

You can see the different result and is natural, because the more time you apply in something the better it will get, no tracing were done and even sampling in the photo, at the end I color corrected the tones to match the image but thats it. Hope it clarify some questions!
