Wooded Winter Creek
Oil over acrylic on masonite, 7x5 |
Happy New Year's Eve!! The freezing rain followed by snow the other day, left a winter wonderland in it’s wake! Early mornings found me painting the early morning color with just a touch of cad red light in the sky. It has been a very long time since I have painted a landscape in acrylics, but today they were calling my name, wanting me to try the new portrait methods with the landscape. The underpainting is completely unsketched, and limited palette color blocked in quickly, but I found myself longing for the buttery strokes of the oils to finish, especially in the water and the sky. I just could not get what I wanted with the acrylics alone. So this painting is oil over acrylic on masonite! Love the depth that can be achieved when applying oils over the matte acrylics! Painting number 1094 in 1094 days :)
Wow a beautiful and serene winter landscape, reflective and shimmering!

The technique you used with acrylics and then oils on the water turned out beautifully. You can just feel how cold it is in that landscape. A real winter wonderland!
