Sakura trees – part 4 – painting grass and river

Next step – painting grass and meadow on first plan. At the beginning I painted green background and later worked on details on grass.

I started from left side of painting. Small grass from faraway was painted by using fan brush but all visible blade of grass was painted manually and separately using normal very thin brush. It took very long period of time. Also I painted edge of river.

Next I tried to detailed meadow at the front of painting. Here glade of grass need to be larger. I also added some flowers. But it isn’t finished work with meadow. Some of planned flowers will be protruded by the river so I painted river before I finish meadow.

Above you can see painted river. I wanted it was very light. On river ducks are swimming. I also made some color on bridge.

To be continued…

Love is all around

Yesterday was Valentine’s Day and I really wanted to share with you my new painting but I hadn’t finished it. Now my painting is done so you can see it now.

The painting presents typically rural landscape near the sea. If you look deeper you can see some unnatural details like grain balls heart-shaped, also trees, stones on the path and clouds are heart-shaped. So love is all around during the day and …

… during the night, because some parts of the art are glowing in the night.

I used some uv paints. This is my first time when I used this kind of paint and I still have it so I think I will use it again in my future artwork.

Technique: acrylic on stretched canvas + uv pigment (edges painted). Size: 30×40 cm
