It took me 2 years to finish this artwork | Oil Painting Time Lapse | Realistic Water Portrait

Sharing the process of my oil painting "Solace," a portrait with realistic water which took over 2 years to finally finish. I am an artist residing in sunny, warm [humid] florida! My paintings are heavily inspired by nature and its beauty. I work primarily in oil paint, and sometimes watercolor. I prefer to work in a mostly realistic style and occasionally experiment outside of that. I post oil painting time lapses, painting lessons and tutorials, drawings, art tips, and occasionally artist vlogs where I share bits of my life as an artist. Creating art is my greatest passion and I'm thankful for the chance to share it with you. ♥ ☾ My Links: ⋆ Patreon - I post real-time oil painting videos with voiceover of my oil painting techniques and process for several realistic paintings, royalty free art references of my own photography for you to use, postcards, q&a podcast, and more!:   / lenadanya   ⋆ Art Store- Original paintings and fine art prints available: http://lenadanyastore.com ⋆ Instagram - works in progress, my art studio, and many more:   / lenadanya   ⋆ Facebook - my official facebook art page:   / lenadanyapage   ⋆ Tumblr:   / lenadanya   Art Playlists of my channel and art videos: Oil painting time lapse / Speed painting:    • ♡ Art Timelapses ♡   Water Series | oil painting time lapses of my realistic, figurative, portrait paintings involving realistic water:    • ♡ Water Series ♡   ⋆ Sketchbook Sunday | Casual series where I paint and draw sketches in my moleskine sketchbook while and chatting with you about artist life and many topics of that nature:    • Playlist   ⋆Learn to paint - Art help, oil painting tips, oil painting basics tutorials for beginners:    • Oil Painting Basics | tutorials, tips, and...   ⋆Lena's Art Diary | Vlog series where I share some of my life as an artist.
