An exercise in Blender grease pencil. I began with a paint by number kit then converted the twelve colors to their hex values and began painting. There are twelve layers, one for each color. Because of the intricate composition the process took some time to complete. I think it came out looking OK.

Oh, it’s lovely. Beautiful piece. Did you make a sketch beforehand ? it doesn’t look like a technique ideal for fast paced experimenting
