I gotta say Buggi, your pictures are so good for how long you've been painting...really.
I probably wasn't even born when my dad started so I never saw his early stuff but he always said, it was 10 years before he thought they were good enough to sell..I guess you are your own hardest critic.
Is there anyone in your family that showed the same skills ?...my grandad was a master carpenter who also dabbled with a canvas, dad and his twin brother became self employed artists, my elder brother and myself always had a pencil in our hands and I can copy stuff, but don't have the ability to create something from nothing. I tried painting years ago and while I thought they were ok for first attempts, I lacked the drive to continue it..something I occasionally think may have been a mistake.
You're enjoying it, you're good so keep going....if that's what they're like now, imaging what you're capable of as your skill grows.

i really appreciate that feedback. Recently i had the chance to take VR and i seriously considered it, so i could go to college or something. I've decided to take a 12 month maternity cover instead and see how i feel in 12 months bcoz it was all a bit of a rush to decide what to do. Gonna have a look at some courses etc so I'm in a better position if i get the opportunity to take VR in 12 months time.

I seriously like that, well done.
i'm gonna sell it. my brother told me about a site i can sell my paintings on and I'm not being big headed, but some of the the ones on there are not as good as mine. That doesn't mean they are selling though i suppose ha ha. anyway, i'm gonna give it a go, see what happens.
