For this scene I followed a tutorial of Paul Ranson this time, he did it a bit different (more sky colors in the water, tremendous depth in his version etc.) and as always he explaines some little details which can be very helpful. For example when holding the knife too flat most of the paint goes to the top of the mountain, I will pay attention to that in the future. And he paints the big trees in several stages. I did it on wallpaper of 40 x 30 cm.

Really nice work!

This is a great painting in so many ways. Especially the mountains, the foothills, sky and water. I also like the feeling of standing up higher in the foreground looking down to the evergreens. That’s a great tip on not holding the knife too flat at the top of the mountain. I know I do that and I will try not to in the future. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely! Yes, Paul covers details nicely. You did a great job on this!

Good one joha!
