Ok so I think i am slowly giving up on it :D. I know it was a little too ambitious but when I saw the original image by William Bouguereau , i was so amazed that i just had to try it. I spent something around 8 hours on this. I know I need to add a lot more details on this but am kinda getting bored with it, so I think i am gonna let it be like this for now. But for sure will touch up on this later sometime. In the meantime will start some new painting. Pls do crit. Thanks :)



the stages of the painting:
