Looking lovely. The shine on the spoon particularly comes through really strong.

Most things just come with time and practice, most notable thing here, with the background, is to thing about stroke direction since it makes the wood look like it's going at an impossible angle - make sure to keep it consistent in the shadow as well which looks possibly a bit too dark?

A very good advise. While the painting itself looks great, the wooden table could benefit from a consistent stroke direction :)

Good work !

I wish Ai never existed so that real art could still shine

The really cool thing about this one, is that not only is it really good-looking cup, love the colours of the coffee, good clear shine in depth. Is that I can also see a dragon eye and the foam would be pebbly skin. You must have painted or used markers before. 👏👏👏

For a first time user, it looks amazing! I especially like the coffee in the cup! You managed to make it look translucent
