Portrait of Winter

Nice pic Brian, fluffy clouds, how do you get them so white,. and beautiful quiet water surface.

This is an amazing painting from you Brian! I love everything about it. Great mountains, beautiful far and closer evergreens, nice lake and your bushes are A+.

great sky in this one C.Happy Thanksgiving.

Thank you Jos, the whitest cloud areas are where I “left out” the blue sky and is basically liquid white.

Thanks so much Nancy! Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks P! Happy Thanksgiving to you as well my friend!

awesome snow break, did you do the thing where you let the paint sit on cardboard for a while?

Thanks Jeffth! And yes I did put the paint on cardboard (smooshed out thin) for 15 minutes.

NOW THAT IS SOME SNOW BREAK. Great job Brian. If I can make just a small suggestion ... Your mountain painting is just beautiful. The only thing I see is my eye is drawn to the straight lines and pointy tops to the mountains. Just a bit of tweaking. Again, this is just a suggestion. You really nailed this one.

Thanks Tony! I appreciate your comments on the mountains. You’re saying to round off the tops a bit and add some irregularities to the outlines of some of the mountains I think. Is that correct?

Exactly Brian. Make them look more random.

Gotcha and I agree. I should practice more mountains too. I appreciate your help Tony and Happy Thanksgiving!

nice job this one! loving that snow break on the mountains too.

Thank you Nivek!
