Painting at a larger scale:

Today I finished a painting of a sketch that I did of my mam at home sitting at the kitchen table at breakfast. I enjoyed the process of this painting. However, there were some colours in which I was struggling to mix to make it look similar to when I was sketching the moment.

I feel like some of the painting is out of proportion but overall I think I think I made a pretty good attempt
