[@People1234My]

I like this painting, but you didn't finish it, I don't know how can do it like you showed picture. l like your bird painting, but I don't know where did you show how can paint it. If you have chance tell me. Thank you!

[@PaintBasket]

which part is not complete?

[@People1234My]

you first showed picture is different than the last picture flower.

[@NolanClark]

@@People1234My The class was about painting bokeh backgrounds so I just quickly painted my own version of the tulip using a knife :)

[@kilnmaster]

Hey long time no see.

[@PaintBasket]

You too. Where have you been, lol ;)

[@yerraguntlaparimala6772]

Would like to know which app is used to blur the background?

[@PaintBasket]

I use Affinity photo, but all photo editing apps have a blur effect

[@KLeonardM]

Depth of field ?????

[@PaintBasket]

With depth of field the camera is set to focus on a specific distance into the scene, everything else is out of focus. For example if the photographer is focusing on the person, everything in front of and behind the person is out of focus.
