If you are a beginner and working on an oil painting, and you suddenly realize that it's not quite turning out the way you thought-- I feel your pain! I bet I've thrown away so many unfinished canvases that I almost feel guilty! At first think about practicing on a not so expensive canvas. Don't give up on it. It's only through all of the practice that we can finally "get it."
Get our you painting book, check the colors, and work on one feature that you can concentrate on. Maybe it is the blocking, maybe it's a color or maybe it is water, ocean, waves, or snow you like to paint. I love mountains, trees, & water. But I try to branch out to other things so that I can develop my talent more. But, at first, paint just what you find relaxing.
