My nephew requested this painting. I added a bit more subtle color and detail here and there to spice things up a bit. Went pretty fast. Oil on 12x16 canvas panel. I used a nice gesso brush to apply the black gesso this time, but while painting I noticed that in future I need to sand the black gesso or go back to using a foam or squeegee brush so I don't get unintended brush lines. Lesson learned. ;>)

Thx KJay. This is my first northern lights painting. I enjoy refining the buildings a bit.
Great painting Larry! this is one of my favorite scenes and I really like your rendition of it. The mountain is fantastic. Overall the painting is much greener than Bob’s version but it works. Cabin is fantastic. Well done.
Hey, Dan's back!
Thanks Dan! Yes, I added more color and tried for a blue green mix that looked greener in context. The knife worked so well on the mountain that it had too much detail, so I had to glaze it to soften it up and give it distance.

This is the painting we did in the class that got me started in painting. Your cabin is beautiful!
