By March, I had started realizing that I wanted to do a study of styles while creating these paintings. Each one of the seven canvases was going to explore the use of a different technique. These are four of the canvases currently being worked on.
The top center canvas is focusing on the maple tree in the background using acrylic paint with 10% structure gel, palette knifes and small, flat tipped paint brush.
The bottom canvas is using light texture to create a 3-D effect for the trees. More paint is applied to the birch trees and rock in the foreground, less paint is used in the background. Paint is applied using a palette knife or small, flat tipped paint brush. No structure gel is being used.
Two of the side canvases are in flux. A thought for the blue canvas is possibly incorporating newspaper for the trees with smooth textures in the background. Still trying to figure out how to do this.
On the painting in the background, my thought is to utilized stippling throughout.
Any thoughts/ideas?
