I get opthalmic migraines once in a while. This isn't from that. My opthalmic migraine give me a glitter silver effect in the lower third of me vision, and I cannot see the very center, so reading is difficult. This is more of stuff I see when I close my eyes, often at night when I'm going to bed. This was just something I saw closing eyes when I was chilling. Might be related to the opthalmic migraine, but not a full blown one. I can't really say when color it was, but I thought purple would look good.
Didn't quite work out how I was thinking, maybe a little more experimenting on this, and start over on a fresh paper.
I use watercolor from tubes, similar to the acrylic paints that come in tubes. Like these https://www.hobbylobby.com/art-supplies/painting-supplies/watercolor-painting/watercolor-paint---24-piece-set/p/81073667
I'm what my sister-in-law calls a naive artist (I don't know the "proper" techniques so I do things my own way).
I like the texture. Can you explain how you did that? I'm thinking it's digital and you use a special brush.
Here it is before adding the "connectors"

Funny the top part of the tree with background sky looks lighter and spotty in this picture, but not on the actual paper!
It's this Dracaena trifasciata https://share.google/DaW70M9d6Q9dNgZGD
This is the same thing with a darkened shadow. I did this my accident in Krita, but I don't know how I did it.


This is what it looked like before I started adding blue and grey to the sky.
Wow. That looks so good. You painted that whole outside? I'd be so distracted by everything.
I think it looks very good. Did you outline in black first and then fill in?

I tried adding black and it was just black with the smallest about of black. I did some reading online and found adding blue was listed, so trying that, that is what I used. I'll try purple next time to see the difference.
