Im leaning more towards the traditional one here. It looks very peaceful and vibrant and I think you captured the soul of the reference image in there. Definitely, digital is more flexible so Id love to see the finished version soon. Don't overwork Ema since you mentioned you are busy with your job lately. It will affect quality. Best to complete it when you are free and happy 😊.
Rural environments are peaceful but internet connection is bad there haha. My grandparents home is in the rural area and I gotta say, the people living there are very polite and welcoming and the air quality is amazing there 😍. Best part is that there is no noise, it's very peaceful.
Thank you so much for your kind words, my friend 😊. I'll make an update post whenever I complete this one on a new canvas.
As for the city vs. country, haha! Yeah, usually a bad internet connection. Aside from that, it's nice to slow down and relax, agreed. I drive through and around cities all day for work, and while I marvel at the architecture and engineering of the urban landscape, it doesn't match who I am.
Next time you see your grandparents, enjoy your time in the rural atmosphere!!
