Media: Palette knife painting using acrylic.
Size: 6x9 in
I'm enjoying painting the sky all kinds of colors instead of just blue, in this one I went for purple, pink and a bit of orange. This mountain is actually Mt Rainier located in the Mt Rainier National Park in Washington. I will admit though, that this road really doesn't exist, I added that to add a bit of depth to the painting, and to make it more inviting. This one was done on a 6 x 9 stretched canvas, I've never painted on this size before. I bought these a few months ago, just to try them out and I kinda like them, it gives the painting a bit more of a longer landscape look to it. I did have to change to a smaller palette knife to make it easier, since the smallest I've ever done a palette knife painting on is an 8 x 10, slightly bigger, but it makes a difference.This is my 9th winter scene painting for my month challenge of painting 30paintings in 30 days.Photo reference for the background, by Photographer Clare.Comes varnished, with sides painted, a saw-tooth hook, and Authentication Papers.
