It's another snowy day and we have almost 8" (20.32cm) of snow on the ground with more coming down and no end in sight.
After doing the barn chores I thought I would like to paint in acrylic today, especially since last night I had found other paintings that were almost finished and decided to complete this painting.
On the left side of the painting there were the a number of birch tree trunks that were indicated in white and needed to be completed by putting on the shadows and the markings.
With a mix of ultramarine blue, burnt sienna and alizarin crimson I put the markings on the closest tree and added the dark limbs and branches. I added a small amount of titanium white and did the same on the two further back birch trees.
Lastly, using various mixtures of burnt sienna, raw sienna and Hansa yellow I put in the grasses, growies and twigs sticking up out of the snow.
This original 16" x 20" acrylic painting when framed will be available for $375.00.
