Norwegian Landscape

Norwegian Landscape
4″ x 4″ x 2″ Golden Fluid Acrylic on Gallery Wrapped Canvas




This was a fun project!  I have 4 hours in this little painting.  There are layers and layers of acrylic glazes, gradually building up the color.

I started with a canvas that I had primed with black gesso.  I drew the lines in with a watercolor pencil.



Then, I painted the pieces in with Golden transparent yellow iron oxide mixed with a dab of titanium white.



The last two are the midway point,  after 2 hours….
I hope you enjoyed seeing the process.
