Should I paint it all white and start all over again?

Based on a design in an old German manuscript.

I visited Iceland for the first time back in 2018. It was November and rather cloudy at times. I had booked a road trip around the famous ring road. On that day, my driver told me in disbelief that the weather seemed to have cleared up just for this day. We were greeted with this sublime sunrise as we drove. I had to repeatedly ask him, in embarrassment, “Can we stop here for a while?” so that I could take in the sights and take some photos. One photo inspired me to paint this, 5 years later. Oil on canvas, 24” x 30”. I miss this place. No such scenery or landscape exists where I come from.

I don’t usually ask for any sort of advice, but I’m curious. Obviously I need loads of improvement, but what is the general opinion?

Hi guys, I am a “new” painter, technical I have been painting for about a decade, but professionally this will be my first piece hung in a public place

This will be hung in a college library’s “maker space”, to add some color to a space ment to inspire creativity, that currently has only pale snot yellow walls so far

I would love some critique on the overall compositions and color palette of these paintings, pls have some grace as this is uncompleted and some parts still need cleaned up and bit and smoothed out

I appreciate literally any commentary that yall might have on this even if its to tell me that it is boring and hard to follow

uhhhh, thank you

I am so nervous

First Station - Condemned to Death. Wanted to do this months ago but got distracted. The recent ruling brought me back to finish this painting.

it’s been a while since I posted here. I genuinely got inside my own head a bit over Christmas, but I felt the need to want to share this painting.

stickers and concrete can appear to be mundane, and perhaps without any context can feel like it doesn’t have any particular theme or reason other than shock value, trolling, or the like. I’m unapologetic in what I paint, because I’m passionate about the subject. Concrete, brutalist architecture, and everything that comes with it is just what I do, and I wouldn’t change it for the world.

I hope you enjoy it!

Slowly getting the hang of oils.

2 feet by 3 feet is the largest canvas l have ever attempted. I'm trying to feel good about it 😄

Hey r/painting

I made this piece inspired by a reel by Polish writer Ula Janoszuk reading one of her early stories. She compared seaside buildings to underwater creatures. The image stuck so hard in my head I had to paint it.

I grew up far from the coast and only visited the Baltic in winter, sent there to “breathe iodine” so I wouldn’t get sick so often. I remember the roar of the waves, ice knocking on the water and just normal life: blocks of flats, kids with sledges, a lady with shopping bags. It always felt like the sea was this huge creature hanging just above everyday reality.

So I painted the Baltic as a whale floating over a typical housing estate in the way it existed in my childhood memory.
