something a little different - this is a commissioned oil painting.
1.5 metres wide.
I painted about 95% of this using only a palette knife, then a small brush for dabs to do the seed heads on the grasses.
synthetic oils on canvas.
Digital photo dosnt really do it justice, as the paint is very thickly applied with the knife, and is very textural up close, you can see the mounds of oil paint.
probably my favorite way to paint, kind of like spreading butter, lots of fun.
depicts mount egmont national park in new zealand.
comments welcomed.
