How it begins to how it ends

just started messing with photoshop painting over real acrylics. it's a big change, plus i've been out of art for like 4 years and havent done anything.

so here's a beginning vs the end result photo.

feel free to critique the end as well as tell how you start on a painting and work your way to the end against how i begin mine.

for me it's all about the stress and relief of hard lines and solid colors being blended and merged.

it helps with my mental disorders (agoraphobia, depression, anxiety, anger...) just by blending colors when i'm feeling down.
