only on paper. i didn't actually paint the truck itself.

edit: i don't sell. any link you see is a scam.

Trying to pay attention to color theory and I'm struggling with lighter values. I feel like every time I paint I have to pour out titanium white to get the intended lightness. Using the Munsell scale for reference, I often start mixing aiming for 9 or 8 but end up at 6.. I don't think I'm using too much water; I end up on the side of dry brushing more often than not. This really becomes a problem with skies and water in some paintings, like this one.

Any tips?

i quite enjoyed my time in victoria and wanted to share my appreciation :)

I paint all the bikes I've owned, and this beauty is the latest addition.
