I Took on an Impossible Painting Deadline

In this video, I set myself a massive challenge: finishing an intense, backlit lion portrait in acrylics in just 48 hours.

Between battling muddy layers, wrestling with self-doubt during "the ugly stage," and racing against a ticking deadline, this painting pushed me right to the edge. Watch to see if I managed to pull it all together before time ran out!
