[CR] Winter's Glow
I Was Inspired ..
To paint this watercolor/oil paint blend piece given the vast amount of times I have come across a scene just like this one. The flat topography of New Jersey allows the sun light to cast through the trees of wooded areas with little effort and nothing to heavily filter it out. Despite the frigid cold, I always loved that moment when the sun has dipped below the horizon and is displaying a yellow orange light through the trees. The reflection on the snow or barren ground is breathtaking.
I Tried To Harness ..
this moment, this memory, and portray it here in this painting. I am calling this piece 'Winter's Glow'. It measures 7.5"x5.5" and took me 1.5 hours to finish. I used four different water color pencils and two oil paint colors. I've used the oil paint in the past and decided to use it again here. Its great as a finishing touch to help soften the painting and in this case add the rich yellow/orange color that I was really looking for. Oil over water, so don't try to touch up the watercolor after you apply the oil paint.. unless of course you want to be disappointed. My signature was the last thing I added in order to complete this small painting.

As usual, a lovely scenery, and a lovely step by step presentation~ This one feels a bit melancholy~ I think it's because of that late russet colours, always makes me feel like the day is done~
Oh boy .. I didn’t look at it that way. :-( day over. Next time I’ll make it a sunrise for you! Lighten it up and less melancholy.
So beautiful, I wish you explain how to make it 😀
Thanks!
