I watched the video, i am guessing the video is a little fast than you actually work or is the video the same speed as you created the art.
I one part i saw where this little head appears as you were working. though i would post it. it is small and was worked over, i did not see it in the finished work.

I see so a tablet offers all kinds of medium tools.
what do you do for a physical copy, print the picture out.
those look good
Yes, it is called a speed painting. If you record them manually you can play them at any speed. In this program the playback is a feature of the program and you can play it at three speeds. But all of them are faster than real speed. And it seems to vary depending on how long the original painting took. So on the quick mountain painting that took 12 minutes to paint it is not much above regular speed. But on a painting that took an hour and 40 minutes I think it goes a bit faster, or at least that is my perception.
As to the head, it could be a number of things. It could be where I started to put something then changed my mind. If you paint over it the video still shows it. Or it could be just a happenstance of brush strokes that looked like that. Or it could even be a playback error on the server side. Not sure in this case, as I don't remember seeing it! But with this particular painting it had a lot more small quick strokes to put in some of the textures on the hill side, so I put them in a lot faster than I usually would, without paying much attention to each stroke, just looking to eventually get the right look.
When I paint in watercolor for instance you almost have to plan out everything, as it is hard to recover whites, the hard edges can cause issues if you use them incorrectly, etc. But with digital sometimes you can just start throwing it on there because you can always undo, or delete the whole layer, or just paint right over it with no trace of the old.
For a physical copy you can print it out if you like. Or you can use a digital picture frame (I usually don't). Or you can use one of the several print making sites that print them professionally. For instance, the dalmation painting I made one print and gave to my mom some years back. We had a dog that looked similar growing up. The dog in my signature was a german shorthair that looked a lot like one we had as well, and I gave the pencil drawing to my dad.
You can also host them on art sites that sell prints so that others can buy them. I sold a few prints some years ago, but usually don't bother. And with the Nintendo it really doesn't output that large. Though in theory, because it is a vector format, you could enlarge it infinitely, but I don't have the software for it currently. Mostly I do it because I enjoy it, and sharing it on the web is more what I wind up doing anyway.
My wife has an art degree, and my kids all enjoy traditional art so we already have plenty of physical art, so that we are running out of space to display it! So it works fine for me to have it just online. And if anyone wants to look at it I can show them on my phone so I have it all the time, or I can email it.
Professionally a lot of folks have gone to digital because it is just so quick and convenient. They can edit it quickly to meet client change requests. And they can email it from anywhere allowing them to work with clients across the country or beyond.
