Hi there, Liron here!
Today I wanted to share with you this painting process I did of the rapper Lil' Wayne.

🎨 DIFFERENT PAINTING APPROACH 🎨

I took a bit of a different approach here, and painted the values I saw in the very first layer (fewer glazes, more immediate result).

This is according to what Stan Miller teaches. 
Check this video out to see what I mean:
