Picasso Painting Reflection

As an introduction to Photoshop along with the string of Adobe guides that demonstrated basics such as Tools and Layers, We further build these foundations with a recreation of Picasso's Jacqueline aux Fleur. We first put a bottom foundation layer that included the original painting. I personally set this layer to about 50-60% opacity in order to distinguish my brush strokes from the original painting. I organized the layers by color in which I first made the outline/black strokes to set a good picture to color; and as such I used to fill colors with the bucket tool. I also created a somewhat oil paint look with the use of the smudge tool to create some imperfections. Although the recreations presents what was intended, I feel like I could've done better if I knew better paint brush tools.
