Swan lake - acrylics painting techniques tutorial

Tom0779 21 Nov 2023

As I recently began to work with watercolors again I also seriously think about doing some new scenes with acrylics.
This has been done after a tutorial by a channel called Acrylics painting techniques on YouTube.
These scenes are very popular among people, i.e. you can sell them very easily. I can remember this was quite a work, and the tutorials aren’t in real time.
It is acrylics on small canvas panel 20 x 20 cm.

Excellent painting Tom. Is there anything you can't do?

Really excellent! Such a beautiful and perfectly executed scene! You are an exceptional artist!

I thought this was a photo at first glance. Incredible detail and realistic. Great job!

Stunning composition Tom!!! You can really do it all!

ahhh love the swans T.a beauty

Wow Great job!

Well done Tom!

Thank you Dirk. I did this in 2021 already. I think on the picture it doesn't look too good as this is a very small canvas.

Thank you Tomi. OMG if I make a list of things I can't do it will never end :)

Wow thank you Sandy, that was a very nice comment.

Thank you Bob!

Thanks Lc, I also like Autum scenes.

Thank you Nancy. I am not sure if I can do all I just follow some tutorials to relax myself :)

Thank you so much Brian!

Thanks Dave, at that time I painted this I think I had some practice with acrylics, not sure if I can do it yet in the same quality.

Thanks Pietro!

Thank you Jin, I am glad you like it!

Thanks Cosmo!

fun to see a slightly out of the ordinary composition (compared to the Ross standard layout). I especially enjoy the back-right trees, shadows, and your birds+reflections.

Aww, such a pretty scene.
The colours are great, with the contrasting orange/red with the greens.
Good lighting as well. <3

Thanks a lot Jeff. I think also with my watercolors I am out of the regular Ross compositions ;)

Thank you Titia, glad you like it!
