Group Of Trees In The New Forest - WIP stages
Steps in the creation of 'Group of Trees in the New Forest' painting. |
A peaceful scene in the New Forest, set
in the county of Hampshire, Southern England, is the subject of this
work. It was painted in June 2019, on mounting board sized at 20” x
16”, using oils.
The picture shows a WIP stages view of
how the painting was created. The first panel shows initial work on
drawing in the scene details using dark brown acrylic paint on a
lighter brown base colour. Basic tonal areas are added in to show the
lights and darks within the composition.. Once this is dry which is
only a short time for acrylic paint, the oil paints are opened up and
basic areas of colours and tonal areas are applied with thinned out
paint on top of the acrylic drawing as seen in the second panel. This
layer acts as a guide, or underpainting for the later process, which
is shown in the third panel, where the paint is now thicker and
applied in a more meaningful manner, with the correct colours and
details laid on top. Final the last panel depicts the finished oil
painting.
