Trees and Mist



This was my first oil painting ever.


Technical Stuff:

It's 5 x 7 in.

It took about 30 minutes.

Tools:
Oil paints
on back stapled traditional canvas
hog bristle hair brushes
palette
9 different color tubes

I based this painting on a photo that was taken by my sister, Nadia: The Dream.


Artist Comments:

I am very proud of this painting, as it was my first oil painting, and I didn't really know what I was doing. And it only took 30 minutes, and probably half of that was mixing colors. I thought the "technique" I used was lots of fun (like I said, I didn't really know what I was doing - I was just doing what felt right to get the look I thought I wanted, haha). I think I would have been more happy with this if I used more browns though.
