"In this workshop, I will try to convince you that painting is simpler than you think, colors don't matter and composition is everything. No Photoshop tricks, no fancy layer modes, just focusing on the basics because that's all you need! Sadly this took me 8 years to understand, I hope I can make you realize it faster!"
