7.16.2012 >>> Another big Grand Teton Mountain Painting is coming soon! Stay Tuned! |
|
|
7.19.2012 Here is my sketch of my new painting. It will be the Teton Mountains and Jenny Lake in the background with a few lodgepole pines in the foreground. I just fell in love with the shape of these trees as I was hiking around the Tetons. |
|
7.20.2012 I started painting the sky and mountains today. This one is 7 feet long- a fun challenge! I love painting big! |
|
7.23.2012 I added some browns to the mountains and started making the water. This one is so big that it takes a lot of time just to get all the spaced filled in. Once I do that I will work on the details. |
|
7.24.2012 I added some lighter colors in the water and some darker blue greys in the mountains. |
|
7.25.2012 I added a line of trees in front of the mountains and I also started adding some of the snow on the mountains today. |
|
7.26.2012 I added a bunch of details on the mountains on the right side today. |
|
7.27.2012 I worked on details on the mountain on the left today. |
|
7.30.2012 I added more details to the mountains on the left side today. |
|
7.31.2012 I worked on the water today and also on the trees on the sides. And I added the tree in the middle of the lake. |
|
8.01.2012 I worked on the water a lot today. I added a lot of contrast on the right side near the reflections. Painting water/reflections can get frustrating! |
|
8.02.2012 More details in the water reflections today. The contrast and details are pretty difficult but I think that I am making some progress conquering them. I added alot of dark green near the edges and more white to the reflections. |
|
8.03.2012 I added more dark contrast to the reflections on the left side of the water and then added in the clouds. I am to the point where I need to add the trees in the foreground but I am now second guessing myself. Hmmm... trees or no trees- that is the question. |
|
8.04.2012 I decided to go for it and I added the tree. So far so good. |
|
8.06.2012 I added the second tree today. I think that I am almost finished- I only have a few touch ups left. |
