Phew, dooone. I swear I'll be dreaming of carpets tonight. But hey, this was fun. Have been wanting to do a study of our living room for a while now, because I love how the sunlight bounces around in it.
As a reference for this I used a picture that I just quickly snapped with my cellphone. I used only standard hard and soft round brushes here. No colour picking off the reference, no layer or brush blend modes. Only in the very end I did a few subtle colour tweaks on the whole painting, that's it.
Hope you guys enjoy it....I did...and should really do more studies like this. Tell me what you think!

Study: Living Room, amazingly realistic painting by `memod. The light filtering through the curtain and the reflections throughout the room are simply beautiful! (

I'm sure if you took a picture of your living room it would be nothing special, but to paint it like this made your living room awesome!!!!!!!!! I like that you kept it with simple brushes. A style that's very smooth and pleasant to look at. Great job.
Hey Mike, thanks so much =] The main reason I stuck to the basic round brush is also that I really wanted to challenge myself here, to try and paint as realistically as possible without relying on any custom brushes, textures or things like that. And it was fun
