Leliel, By the Hidden Sun - (detail phase) (Patreon)

As I close in on the end of the painting I am starting to feel like I need to place the figure in a scene of some sort. Originally I was considering placing them in an entirely empty void that was defined entirely through texture but I took this detour to see if the painting would be better if I made that texture a little less random. It only took a couple of streaky cloud shapes to convince me this was the way to get back on my bullshit. I love painting crumbly clouds like this.
